Our Parents and Friends Association invites families with children in Year 5-9 to hear from Dr Judith Locke, a registered clinical psychologist, former teacher, and school counsellor. 

This session, Helping your child become confident and capable in their school years and beyond, will offer practical strategies to encourage your child's confidence, resilience, and self-regulation in their schooling, and work toward maintaining harmony in the home throughout the child, tween and teen years.

Judith will host a session for the parents of Preschool - Year 4 children on Monday 23 March. If you are not able to attend the session specific to your daughter’s age group, please feel free to attend the alternative session.

Please note that photography is not permitted during the session.
