Parent Information Nights
As part of the Pastoral Care Program, two Parent Information Evenings are held throughout the year. The first was specifically aimed at parents of boys in Year 9 and was held on Thursday 27 March in the Function Room of the PE Centre. The evening was for parents.
The guest speaker was Laura Vogl who is a researcher with the National Alcohol and Drug Centre, a Federal Government funded body, based at the University of NSW. Parents might like to find out more about this program at: http://ndarc.med.unsw.edu.au
Any parent who would like copies of the information handed out at Parent Information Nights, or further information about any Personal Development topic, please contact the Head of PDHPE, Mr Wayne Cox.
Newington also supports the Federal Govenment's Families Matter initiative.
