Principal's Message This week we had the opportunity to host the world renowned psychologist, Dr Michael Carr-Gregg. You may recognise him as the resident ‘go to expert’ who appears regularly on Sunrise advising on all matters of parenting. This was a Hasting Valley Community of Schools initiative aimed at providing our students and the wider community with valuable information to support students and families manage the challenges of adolescence. There was also a parent session which was both entertaining and incredibly informative. Raising adolescents is undoubtedly a challenge for us all. Promoting our teens’ safety, understanding their developing brains and navigating the ups and downs are all difficult tasks. Especially challenging is attempting to do this whilst also preserving our relationships and maintaining harmonious homes. Dr Carr-Gregg was frank about what parents can do and should not do to support their teens to develop resilience and gave some great key points of reference.
