Learning Diversity

ADHD and Executive Functioning Parent Session

Last Monday evening, approximately 35 parents attended a parent information session hosted by Tania Rowan. During the session Tania provided us with some insight into how people and children can be impacted by neurodiverse differences, such as ADHD, and challenges with executive functioning skills. Below is a snapshot of some strategies that Tania shared with us.

I will email the slides of Tania's presentation and attachments to families in the coming days. If you were unable to attend and are interested in the information, please reach out via email to me; nmcnamara@shcolac.edu.au. We thank the parents we attended and hope that you found it informative and helpful. I welcome any feedback from parents. Below are Tania's contact details if you wish to contact her.
