Dr Kristy Goodwin workshop and webinar

Year 4 – 6 Thrive Online Workshops

Dr Kristy Goodwin will be coming to work with our Year 4, 5 and 6 girls in Term 3 on Monday 2 August, delivering her workshop, Thrive Online.

During these workshops, Kristy will explore:

the impact of students’ constantly connected lives on their mental wellbeing and habits they can embed to protect it
the consequences of being tethered to technology on their physical health (sleep, vision, hearing and musculoskeletal health) and simple strategies to protect their health
their digital DNA and the personal and legal ramifications of what they share and disclose online
realistic strategies to help them manage their time and focus when online

These sessions will build on the discussions the girls have in their classrooms about online safety and we hope they inspire some productive conversations for you and your daughter at home.
