The InterAction Breakfast Series is a program of professional development seminars for anyone working in primary and secondary education. The seminars cover a variety of issues, from looking at different leadership models and how to encourage your students to get involved in their school community, to examining pertinent topics like internet safety and cyber-bullying. yLead’s intention is to explore the subject in a way that is engaging and relevant to the experiences you encounter in your school on a daily basis. Topics we hope to cover in future seminars include providing meaningful travel experiences for young people, and looking at ‘Alternative Schoolies’ programs. The breakfasts also provide an opportunity to network with staff from other schools, including principals, Year Level Coordinators, Heads of Department, and pastoral care and leadership teams.

WE REGRET TO INFORM THAT THE CHILD SAFETY BREAKFAST BELOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED.

We hope to run a similar program in future if there is sufficient interest. Please contact the office on 07 3269 2233 if you would like to be notified of the next InterAction Breakfast.

Next InterAction Breakfast:

Child Safety - The Missing Links

Friday 3 September 2010

Broncos Leagues Club, Red Hill

Our role as a society is to educate our children on how to be safe in the community, as well as at school. Hear from three organisations that are partnering to provide schools with all the pieces of the puzzle that provide life education and protection for students.

S.A.F.E. - Securing a Family Environment

Life education for children - what are safe thoughts, feelings and how to maintain healthy relationships. We will show you how we teach situational awareness and resilience tools that children can quickly adopt. We will talk to you about how we shift thinking and provide clarity and confidence in situations faced by students everyday.

iNess - Internet Education & Safety Services

Protecting children in the virtual world! Brett Lee will scare and inform you in a session that will open your eyes to the dark side of the internet. He will show you why education is the only answer.

yLead

The greatest challenge we have is to raise the self esteem of our children, as confidence and strong mindset provide great protection. yLead will profile their role in providing this part of the SAFE jigsaw puzzle.
