Irish 30 Special - The Roadmap Back to School
Thursday 28th October | 7.30pm
As children are returning to the classroom after a long lockdown in NSW, we will look at how we can prepare ourselves and our kids to go back to school. We are aware of how difficult this has been for students, parents and teachers and this presentation aims to demystify some of the expectations we have put on ourselves and our kids and offer some relief and hope as we look to the future in the classroom.
This will be a really informative presentation, with key takeaways and easily integrated skills.
We will be joined by Dympna Kennedy, and Miriam Meaney.
Dympna Kennedy is the founder of CreatingBalance, a parent education and early childhood advisory organisation. She has presented for Resourcing Parents (Families NSW), The Early Childhood Association, The Australian Nanny National Conference, the National Conference of The Australian Infant Mental Health Association, Sydney Local Health District, Australian Breastfeeding Association and assisted The City of Canada Bay on their 'Let's All Play Strategy’. A co-author of two books; Remote Working! when daycare and the classroom return home and 'Woman Leading', establishing leadership in the home. She is a recipient of the Family and Children's Services' Award for Excellence’. Originally from Derry, Northern Ireland, Dympna resides in Sydney with her husband and two sons.
Miriam is a Principal at a primary school in Katoomba. Born in Cork, she lived in Dungarvan, Kilkenny and Dublin before emigrating to Australia in the late 80s. Miriam has a lifetime of teaching experience, both Irish and Australian. When she returned to Ireland in 2018 for an extended holiday, she did some casual work in Irish schools to reconnect with the Irish teaching experience. Miriam has three adult children, Alana, Aoife and Shane. Currently living in the Blue Mountains, Miriam loves reading, the great outdoors and friendship as well as the work she does.
