Thursday 5th November 7pm – \u00a0https:\/\/www.trybooking.com\/BMICF<\/a><\/p>\n

The P&C with the support of the Wellbeing team at Fort Street High School are very pleased to present an interactive, on-line session on a topical issue – mental health, \u00a0by Jono Nicholas, one of Australia\u2019s most prominent and passionate advocates for the mental health of young people.

Many parents have asked the P&C about guidance and support in this area and we hope that this presentation will offer practical advice and steps to help you and your child through the challenging teenage years, which have been exacerbated by the events of 2020.
\nThe presentation will run for about 40 minutes and be followed by a Q&A session.<\/p>\n

Topics covered will include:<\/p>\n

– Understanding your teenagers cognitive development
\n– Drivers for mental health
\n– The psychological impact of COVID-19
\n– Tips and tricks for maintaining teenage wellbeing
\n– Supporting your teenager if they are struggling<\/p>\n

With generosity being one of the 5 key drivers for wellbeing, Jono has asked that all proceeds raised go towards wellbeing initiatives at the school. Tickets for this presentation are $10. We are also offering free tickets to those facing financial difficulties. Tickets are now open and can be booked using the link below.

P&C Information flyer<\/b>
\nThe P&C was very lucky to be able to recruit the skills of two families within the school community to assist with photography and graphic design in the creation of a P&C flyer for inclusion in the information packs that go out to new families each year. The flyer explains what the P&C does and how new families can contribute to their child’s education by becoming involved with P&C related activities within the community. Thank you to Simon and Kirrily Druery \u00a0https:\/\/www.theideashatchery.com.au\/<\/a>\u00a0(year 7 parents) \u00a0and Anni Payne and Matthew Duchesne\u00a0https:\/\/fancyboyphotography.com.au\/<\/a>\u00a0(year 8 parents).P&C Project Funding<\/b>
