Parenting Education Programs – Term 3, 2025
Hi families,
A great opportunity awaits our community members!
MELI (our local community support service) is offering a range of Parenting Education Programs this term to support families in building stronger, more connected relationships.
These programs are designed for parents and caregivers of children of all ages and aim to provide practical tools, strategies, and guidance on positive parenting, child development, emotional regulation, and managing everyday challenges in family life.
Whether you're facing particular parenting challenges or simply want to build on your parenting knowledge, these programs are inclusive, welcoming, and free to access for most families.

Golden Plains Shire is also offering a FREE 8 week program for parents of children aged 0-5. This program (see below) empowers parents with valuable insights and skills to enhance their parenting ability.
