Parents in Touch Site Updates

The Power of Parental Engagement in Wellbeing

We firmly believe that a child's holistic development is best nurtured when parents and educators work hand-in-hand. We recognize that the challenges of modern parenting can sometimes feel overwhelming. The Parents in Touch site was created to empower parents with practical tools and ideas to enhance their own wellbeing and, by extension, their children's wellbeing.

 

What's in Store.....

 

Parents in Touch acts as a comprehensive repository of wellbeing ideas, strategies, and content that is continually updated with the latest research and expert insights. We understand that wellbeing is a multifaceted concept, encompassing mental, emotional, physical, and social aspects of life. As such, the website will continue to feature the following key elements:

 

Wellbeing Strategies: Access a treasure trove of evidence-based strategies to support your mental and emotional health. From stress management techniques to mindfulness exercises, we have curated a collection of effective practices to help you navigate the ups and downs of everyday life.

 

Support Agencies: Sometimes, seeking external support can be crucial in overcoming challenges. Our website will provide a directory of local and national support agencies that cater to various aspects of wellbeing, ensuring that you can easily find the assistance you need, whether it be parenting advice or counselling services.

 

Podcast Recommendations: In today's fast-paced world, podcasts have become an accessible way to gain knowledge and inspiration. We will regularly update our list of recommended podcasts that cover a range of topics related to parenting, self-care, education, and personal growth.

 

Book Recommendations: Books have the power to transform lives. We will feature an ever-growing collection of recommended reads from experts and thought leaders in the fields of psychology, parenting, and personal development.

 

Community Forums: Engage in open discussions with other parents and educators to share experiences, seek advice, and build a supportive network within our school communities.

 

Growing Together, Thriving Together:  By continuing to provide parents with this platform, we hope to foster a sense of belonging and mutual growth within our School communities. We firmly believe that when parents feel supported and equipped with the right tools, they can play an even more significant role in their child's wellbeing, happiness and academic success.

 

Together, let's nurture wellbeing, strengthen connections, and create an environment where every member of our School Communities can thrive.
