SEX EDUCATION INFORMATION NIGHT
We are excited to invite all parents and guardians to our online Sex Education Information Night on Thursday 21 November 2024, designed to offer valuable insights into key sexual education topics. An experienced educator will lead the sessions, providing practical guidance on how to support your child’s learning and development at home.
There will be two tailored sessions:
Years 3 & 4 Families: 6:15 - 7:15 pm
Years 5 & 6 Families: 7:30 - 8:30 pm
Both sessions will be conducted online. To reserve your spot and view pricing details, please visit TryBooking.
