The impact of social media on well-being

It was fantastic to see over 100 parents and staff in attendance last evening for the talk on the impact of social media on well-being. The evening was hosted by “You’re not on the back foot!” and covered the following topics:

  • The impact of Social Media on the developing brain
  • How children are using Social Media
  • How to protect children and create a safer Social Media experience

The guest speakers were Caroline Kelly, a school counsellor, and Madeline Stanimeros, a parenting consultant. There was lots of positive feedback from all who attended.

There are two more talks organised for next year about Drugs, and Alcohol. Dates and times to follow.
