2018 Pastoral Care Program: Information for- Parents

Year 10 Father Son Night -“ Tuesday March 20

The annual Year 10 Father / Son night will happen on Tuesday 20 March, from 7pm in the Pavilion, with break out discussions to occur in the Wilding Wing.- I would please encourage all Year 10 students to take this opportunity to bond with their father or a significant male mentor in their lives. It is always a wonderful evening, and students who have previously taken part in this program have been highly grateful for the experience. The program is run by the same facilitator as the Year 7 Mother / Son evening, Bill Jennings, from Time and Space.

I have emailed a letter home to all Year 10 parents with a link to register for the event. Pre-registration is crucial for the successful running of the evening, as all participants will receive name tags and be assigned groups to have discussions in as part of the evening.

Should you have any difficulties with registration, or if you have any questions about this event, please contact me via email: bmurray@stpats.vic.edu.au
