JCG Table Talks Workshop 9 (Parents of Y9-11)

We hope you can join us in for the third Table Talk workshop, from 1800-1930 on Thursday 15th January.

The evening will begin with a light meal, to set the tone of relaxed and open conversation between groups of parents. We feel that eating together is an important ingredient in the success of this venture.

From 1830, there will be fifteen minutes of in-person input from Linda Loftsdottir, Mental Health Practitioner, Counsellor and Psychotherapist. Linda supports young people through the work of the Early Intervention Team at CAMHS (the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service).

This input is designed to support the parents of JCG Upper School students (Years 9-11), as we are conscious that this is the age group in which students are most likely to struggle with their wellbeing and mental health.

The format of the event, designed to foster powerful conversations and the strengthening of community bonds, does limit us to 16 places. The evening will run with a minimum of 10 participants. A small charge of £12 per person will allow us to cover the costs of the event and make the Table Talks initiative a sustainable one.

If your child is eligible for financial assistance through Jersey Premium funding or our Bursary programme, the cost of the event can be covered through these funds. Please contact our Financial Assistance Co-ordinator, Ailsa Worthington a.worthington@jcg.sch.je
