Dr Judith Locke, a registered Clinical Psychologist, former teacher, school counsellor, and best-selling author of three parenting books, is coming to Mercedes College next week.

A specialist in modern parenting, family wellbeing, and academic environments, Dr Locke will be working with our educators on best practice in the classroom.

As well as presenting to staff, and as part of our commitment to working in partnership with you, Dr Locke will also be speaking to families about best practice at home, so that together we can deliver positive and effective age-appropriate strategies that can help our students become more confident and capable, and help family life become more harmonious.

Dr Locke is a renowned speaker, which is why we hope parents of children across all year levels will be able to make the time to come and listen to such a respected and experienced speaker in this field. We strongly recommend you attend - it will be worth the investment of your time.
