Wellesley Insights Evening: ‘Enhancing Emotional Resilience’

10 May 2019

Enhancing Emotional Resilience’ is the topic of the next Wellesley Insights Evening, taking place on Thursday 6 June, from 7pm – 8:30pm.

Promoting wellbeing and resilience is an important focus at Wellesley. With increasing involvement in extra-curricular activities, higher performance expectations and less down-time away from technology, children face greater levels of stress early on which can negatively affect their wellbeing and their capacity for resilience.

Parents, whānau and friends are invited to join us for an evening with guest speaker Kathryn Berkett of ENGAGE who will talk about the latest research in neuroscience and its impact on wellbeing and resilience. You will also hear from our Wellness team about Wellesley’s holistic approach and the programmes we have put in place for our young boys. Read the full Media Release.

If you wish to attend, please RSVP to Karen@wellesley.school.nz by Friday 30 May. This event will take place in the Wellesley Centennial Hall. There is no charge. We look forward to seeing you there!
