Raising Resilient Families
Elim Christian College will be hosting the community seminar "Raising Resilient Families - in life, relationships and their online world" with the renowned Collett Smart. This will take place on the 14th August starting at 7:15pm (gold coin donation) in the auditorium at 159 Botany Rd.
Parenting can be fun and exciting, but new changes and challenges can also feel overwhelming. How can we support our children to become who they are meant to be?
In this interactive seminar Collett discusses:
- How we might harness the resilience factors within each child
- What children want and what they actually need
- Helping young people take their resilience online
- Practical tips for enhancing your relationship with your children and teens

Would love to see you there!
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
