Parent Education
One of the most compelling distinctions of our Parents Centre is the parent education programme. The adult education courses are facilitated discussions with other Parent Centre members. They provide ideas and learning that can be applied at home as well as at Parent Centre, and also help new families get to know each other.
For many parents, adult education gives them confidence not only in their parenting abilities, but also in their ability to learn and contribute.
