Laois Education Centre in partnership with the Triple P Parenting Programme are delivering a Fear-Less Seminar over 2 nights which will offer Parents of children 4 – 14 years of age tips and strategies to help their children to manage their anxiety and provide practical evidence-based tips for parents and carers in these uncertain times.

Parenting during the COVID-19 pandemic is a unique challenge for all parents, caregivers and families. Children and parents are anxious, and families are under pressure like never before.
Being a parent to a child/teenager who is experiencing anxiety can be tough. Anxious children / teenagers can seek constant reassurance have outbursts of anger / frustration and can feel sick when worried. Parenting has a crucial role to play in mitigating the potential long-term negative impacts of COVID-19 on children, particularly in relation to mental health.

DATE: 13th & 14th May (over 2 evenings)
Time: 7.30pm-8.30pm each evening

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO JOIN THIS FREE SEMINAR
Please email: FEAR LESS YES to: yvonne@laoisedcentre.ie with your name.

You will then receive a ZOOM invitation with a link on before the session commences. All information is confidential and your image or any identifying details will NOT be on screen.

All schools are required to update their admissions policies to reflect current legislation. Below is a draft of our revised policy. In essence there will be no change to our current practices. If you wish to comment, you’re welcome to email ballylinan1@yahoo.ie . Thank you.

Please note that Confirmation and First Communion are on hold for the time being. We understand that parents and children (and teachers) would like to know what’s happening and we will contact you the moment we have any definite information. In the meantime we await further government and church advice.
