Adventures in Parentland with Nigel Latta - A Showcase Event to kick off Selwyn Parenting Week 2025

Selwyn Parenting Network proudly presents: 

An Evening with Nigel Latta

Monday 12 May, 7:00 PM

Lincoln Events Centre, Lincoln

It can be easy to feel a bit lost when it comes to parenting in 2025. The internet is awash with alarming statistics and all kinds of contradictory advice. On top of that, the issues young people and their families face are complex and at times overwhelming. And as the fastest-growing district in Aotearoa (well done), parents in Selwyn are dealing with a lot of changes and a lot of pressures.

In this entertaining evening, Nigel will provide a load of evidence-based tools and tips to make the journey less bumpy. Just because the issues are complex doesn’t mean the solutions have to be. In fact, the stuff that really matters is surprisingly simple… so there’s plenty of good news to be had.

Join us for an unforgettable night with one of Aotearoa’s most well-known and straight-talking psychologists, Nigel Latta.

Nigel has spent over two decades working with families, young people, and those on the edges of society. He’s also a best-selling author and the face of several hit TV documentaries that take on the big issues—always with wit, wisdom, and a total lack of fluff.

This is a flagship event of Selwyn Parenting Week 2025 — Proudly brought to you by Selwyn Parenting Network - Navigators for all things parenting in Selwyn!!

“Parenting Now: Real Talk, Real Support”

Parenting today looks different—and it’s not always easy to keep up. Between tech overload, cost of living stress, mental health challenges, and the constant juggle, it’s a lot. That’s why this year’s Selwyn Parenting Week is all about Parenting Now: Real Talk, Real Support.

This week-long series is designed for real parents living real lives, right here in Selwyn. No judgment, no filters—just a chance to connect, learn, laugh, and be reminded that you’re not doing this alone.

What’s on:

• Honest kōrero and sessions with parents, rangatahi, and expert speakers

• Practical, down-to-earth conversations on the stuff that matters now—like digital wellbeing, resilience, and everyday parenting challenges

• Community connections, giveaways, local services, and a mix of in-person, online, and hybrid events for Selwyn whānau

Selwyn Parenting Week is proudly hosted by the Selwyn Parenting Network (Registered Charity CC48588), with the support of incredible community organisations, schools, local businesses, and everyday parenting champions.
