Guest speaker Dr. Deborah MacNamara will be at Southpointe Academy in Tsawwassen next week to talk about building strong connections with kids.
MacNamara is the author of Rest, Play, Grow, a book that offers a road map to making sense of young children. She is also a faculty member of the Neufeld Institute. The organization's mission "is to use developmental science to make sense of children to the adults responsible for them," according to its website.
"Deborah is a dynamic teacher and experienced counsellor who makes developmental science come to life in the everyday context of home and classroom," her own website notes.
The talk is scheduled for Thursday, April 20 from 7 to 9 p.m. at Southpointe Academy, 1900-56th St., Tsawwassen.
There is no cost for guests to attend but they will be required to register by emailing [email protected].
