Parents’ Link to the Social Inclusion work at MES
Teasing crosses the line when…
Close friendships cross the line and become cliques when…
How would you and your family finish these sentences? One family’s answers might look different from another family’s answers. Last night’s talk by Kim John Payne raised a lot of questions, comments and conversation from the group who came out to hear him speak.
Parents and community members who would like to help support the social inclusion work being done at school by carrying this work forward at home with our families are invited to a follow-up meeting to share their ideas, insights and inspirations next Thursday, November 19th at 7pm.
At next Thursday’s meeting, the Parent Reps of the SICG will help shape the meeting, but the content of the meeting will come from those present. We will focus on how families, in their own homes and in their daily interactions, can support the social inclusion work being done at school by our teachers and staff. What piece of this social inclusion work resonates with you? What would you like to bring awareness to in your home? What next steps make sense to you?
Kim Paynes’ book, Simplicity Parenting, is available at the reduced price of $20 through Francie. She also has some of his audio cd’s on various child-centered topics available for purchase. Copies of Simplicity Parenting and the audio cd’s are available in our MES Library for borrowing.
