The Year 11 Attitude Hardwired Presentation is taking place today in period 1 in the Auditorium.  
Parents and Caregivers are invited to attend a presentation hosted by Brett Harvey from Tāima Kōrero presenting from 7 – 8pm in Rangitoto Auditorium. Brett will speak on the impact of pornography on our young people and how parents can equip themselves for conversations with their children in this area. By having the right conversations in a timely way, we can reduce the impact of pornography and support our children. The prevalence of pornography is spreading rapidly throughout our society, and its long-term effects are yet to be fully understood. However, by equipping parents and young people with effective strategies to work together, we can look to reduce the harmful impact of pornography on young people. Brett will deliver engaging, honest and sensible information on how to talk about pornography with your teenager, and why these conversations need to happen. Backed by the latest statistics and research, this parent presentation draws on Brett’s first-hand knowledge of the negative effects of pornography and provides attendees with an eye-opening insight into the multi-billion dollar industry that is targeting our children. Brett aims to have parents leave feeling well-informed and equipped to have these difficult yet essential conversations with their children. We encourage all parents to attend this session to support their teenager in safely navigating the digital landscape of online pornography.  Further information on registering for this event will be provided nearer the time.
