Emotionally Intelligent Parenting During Adolescence

Are you interested in joining a parenting program at SCEGGS that aims to help you and your child manage the many emotional challenges of adolescence?

REGISTER TODAY by replying by email to our team!

This program will teach you how to manage your own and your adolescent’s emotions in ways that help you to remain close and keep communicating. By learning these skills, you are less likely to have as much conflict within your family and your teen is more likely to talk to you about the challenging issues they face.  These are factors that have been found to reduce the risk of mental health and emotional problems. Tuning in to Teens® is a six-week program, run one evening a week at SCEGGS for two hours, specifically for parents of students in Years 6-8. 

• 6 x 2hr sessions
• Mondays, 5pm-7pm
• Starts Monday 4th May
• Held at SCEGGS

Would you like to find out more?

Please email  by Thursday 23 April to participate or if you have any questions. This is a great opportunity to learn some skills to assist your relationship with your daughter, and also to connect with other parents in a relaxed and comfortable setting.

Some Feedback received from SCEGGS parents who have previously attended Tuning in to Teens:

I highly recommend this program to anyone with teens as you never know what is around the corner, and having a toolkit available to use is most helpful.

It has given (us) the opportunity to be more aligned in our parenting styles and how we deal with certain situations.

Practical examples/strategies, listening to others experiences (was helpful).

Family is calmer.

The practice we got in the class really helped.

We’d love to see you there!
