Wellbeing at OPPS 

Dear Families, 

At Orchard Park, we are passionate about working with families and our community to develop resilient and happy children. As part of our work with The Resilience Project this year, we will be running two Parent/Carer sessions. 

1.  Held online on Thursday 23rd of March from 6.30pm-8.00pm. 

2.  Held in person on Monday 15th May 6.30pm. (More information regarding this session will be sent out closer to the date).

Information regarding the first session is below:

What you can expect:

Through emotionally engaging stories and practical strategies, this session will help parents and carers understand the benefits of letting go of shame, perfection, ego and control. It will combine powerful research with candid storytelling, along with a few laughs to help support what is arguably the toughest job in the world... being a parent or carer!

Why a Parent & Carer presentation?

When building positive mental health in schools, we know the best impact happens when we work together. The ‘Authentic Connection’ presentation helps do just that by sharing those same evidence-based strategies being taught in the classroom, so they can be also practised at home and beyond. Attendees will also be reminded of the importance of their own wellbeing - we bring the best versions of ourselves to our family and community, when we make time to look after ourselves.

Parents and Carers will need to register for the webinar using the following link:  REGISTER HERE - Meeting Registration - Zoom

We strongly encourage all families to engage in this online session to get a deeper understanding of the work we are doing with students at Orchard Park, as well as how you can support your children at home.. We thank you for your ongoing support in our collective effort to develop resilient and happy children.
