Upcoming Term 4 Events
A new Term is here and the silly season is just around the corner. Before we know it we’ll be celebrating together at the PPA College Christmas Celebration (Sunday 27 November) and reminiscing about the year that was. However, there are still quite a few events to enjoy in Term 4 – be sure to stay up to date with our full schedule of events and upcoming calendar here.
Speaking of teens – Holding on to love
Last night we kicked off Term 4 with a bang, welcoming around 300 guests on site for a parenting forum featuring five experts across a range of specialities. The panel discussed five parenting scenarios through the lens of their given field offering a thought-provoking discussion about parenting teens. We are grateful for the acumen brought by our five visiting panellists and would like to extend our deepest thanks to John Vassiliadis, Madonna King, Brad Marshall, Donna Cross and Michele Chevalley Hedge for sharing their wisdom. The program including tips from our panel can be viewed here.
Feedback – We want to hear from you 😊
Last term we held a set of Community Engagement focus groups aimed at hearing from our Pymble families about our communications and events. The sessions offered great insight into the needs of our Pymble parents, and as a result we have planned further avenues:
- To drill down further on what we heard during the focus groups, we have prepared a short survey. We would be grateful if you could take a couple of minutes to complete this to help us with our event planning for 2023. Please click here to complete the survey.
- In order to fine tune our processes even further we will be holding a second set of face-to-face focus groups, this time focusing on the technology processes we use to reach our community. If you would like to participate in this series of sessions in Week 4 this term, please contact communityengagement@pymblelc.nsw.edu.au.
Looking forward to seeing you this Term!
