Bradfield Parent Workshop. Partnerships: Effective Communications with Joy Stewart Part II

We invite you to a workshop on communication with some COVID context with Joy Stewart and two actors taking the roles of parent Sharnie and student Felix.

Due to positive feedback and popular demand, this is the second workshop for parents run by Joy this year. This workshop will be run via video conference - the video link to the workshop will be sent the day before the event. (You can attend this workshop even if you missed the first one.) 

Parents are sometimes faced with unexpected conversations which can be difficult. This workshop presents you with the opportunity to look at some of these conversations and engage in discussion about strategies that are useful.

Parents will have the opportunity to discuss communication strategies and see the dialogue and transactional models in action. Actors will present different scenarios providing parents with a safe environment to explore options to get different outcomes.

Joy Stewart, an industry specialist in organisational communication, will explore further the models that Bradfield has adopted to support the college community. These skills and strategies can be used in your day to day interactions whether talking to your child, a teacher, a colleague at work or your partner.

We’ll have some general conversation online between 5.30-6.00pm, with the workshop commencing at 6.00pm.

The event is hosted by Friends of Bradfield, which is our parent body that represents parents and carers. Friends is a charity and is led by an elected parent committee supported by the Director and an Assistant Director of the College.
