Triple P's Parenting Program

Triple P - Positive Parenting Program aims to give parents simple and practical strategies to help them build strong, healthy relationships, confidently manage their children’s behaviour and prevent problems developing.

The program is now free and accessible online for parents with children under 12 years old. You can access further information and the free online course at the below link:

High Impact Teaching Perth Immersion

Next week I have the great pleasure of travelling to Perth for a three day intensive program for Catholic Education staff that includes school visits, classroom observations and presentations by leaders in education. 

The group that I am attending Perth with will experience a wide range of Science of Learning and Science of Reading teaching practices in Primary and Secondary schools and I will work with professional facilitators to unpack these and bring back the best ideas for our school. 

I will get to share experiences with teachers and Principals who have implemented High Impact teaching (informed by the Science of Learning and the Science of Reading), build my understanding of how schools can implement evidence-based practice and gain a greater understanding of the practice, programs, strategies and initiatives that need to be in place to become a high performing and achieving school.

I will be visiting the following schools during my time in Perth:

  • Aveley Secondary College
  • Dawson Park Primary School
  • Ellen Stirling Primary School
  • Hammond Park Secondary College
  • West Swan (Dayton) Primary School

Included in the survey are three questions to get to know your child's strengths, interests and learning habits and one question for you to express your wishes for your child's education next year. 

Please find the transition survey as a Google Form at the following link:
