Workshop: Building Resilience Through Independence

Dear Families,

Welcome back after a hopefully restful and enjoyable break. I was fortunate enough to spend some time in the North Island of New Zealand. What an amazing place and such wonderful people. In other news, I have finally published my second book; Connecting with your Teens. It has been a lot of work and has taken about two years. I am hopeful that it is a useful resource for families with teenagers. 

The Regional Parenting Service, through the City of Greater Geelong (COGG) offer many programs to support families and parents. Please see the ‘Parent Information’ section in our newsletter. Through COGG, I will be running a workshop titled ‘Building Resilience Through Independence’ on Thursday 16th November in Torquay. This is a free event. 

I will also be running a similar workshop for OGPS parents on Tuesday 17th October at school. Bookings will be able to be made in a link in the newsletter next week. 

Have a great term.
