Rangitoto College is pleased to offer the new SchoolTV online resource to our parents, which aims to help parents build resilience in their children.
SchoolTV presents a range of resources in one convenient location, addressing a range of adolescent issues including anxiety, depression, body image, stress and more. The resources include videos and articles that will be useful for our parents and could even be read alongside your child. Recently included is a special report on the Christchurch mosque shootings and how parents can navigate conversations surrounding this difficult topic.
As part of the launch evening, Rangitoto College was thrilled to host Dr Michel Carr-Gregg, an Australian author, broadcaster, and clinical psychologist specialising in parenting and child and adolescent mental health. His topic of presentation for the evening was “How to build happy and resilient young people,” which he delivered with large doses of humour amongst pragmatic insights and advice.
SchoolTV can be accessed by our community through the Parent Portal under Quicklinks or here
