Restorative Parenting Workshops

From Da Vinci!

Hi Lord Lansdowne Community,

I'd like to take this opportunity to invite you to our 2016 Restorative Parenting Workshops.  Our next one is this Wed 20th from 6-8pm.  We hope to lay the groundwork for this initiative to be continued throughout the school with the support of our teachers and administration.  Our hope is to use this as part of an anti bullying conversation.  But first we start at home.   Please join us for a series of evenings for some open and frank discussions.   These will be facilitated by the animated Rick Kelly.

More information here

(note that the session on Wed 23rd March was cancelled - you have not missed anything!)
