Inform and Empower
St John's Mitcham were very excited to welcome Martin, an expert educator, and Carley, an experienced psychologist, from Inform & Empower to our school for a parent information evening.
The 90 minute Raising Kids in a Digital World seminar shared evidence-based strategies as well as practical tips and up-to-date insights. This ensured our parent community left with current research and knowledge as well as the tools, skills and mindset they need to support their children as they navigate the online world.
Martin and Carley explored a range of topics including:
- Social media
- Impacts of screen time
- Online gaming
- Cyberbullying
- Child/tween online trends
- Explicit/adult content
- Mentor parenting
- Family communication
- Parental controls
It was an informative and enjoyable session and St John's continues to share the work of Inform & Empower through our termly student webinars.
