Lutheran Education Queensland welcomes Madonna King, the acclaimed author of books such as “Being 14” and “Out of the Box”, to lead a series of engaging and informative webinars for the parents of our Lutheran schools. With her extensive experience, Madonna will offer valuable insights into raising emotionally healthy and resilient children and teens. These sessions will equip parents with practical tools and strategies to confidently navigate the challenges of modern parenting.

TOPIC 1: Growing kind, curious and clever children

Who do you want your child to be on the day they graduate? That requires parental planning, whether they are eight or 16. This will outline the concrete steps parents can take to ensure their child thrives, as they grow through adolescence.

TOPIC 2: Allowing children to flourish in a digital age

The online world - from social media to AI - is here to stay. So how can parents protect their child? From the disease of comparison to sextortion, from the lack of sleep to stranger danger - this conversation will guide parents through the threats posed online, and how best to deal with them.

TOPIC 3: Out of the Box

Many teachers believe 40 percent of their classes learn differently. They fall into a category of neurodivergence; the broad term of conditions like ADHD, Autism and dyslexia. How do you know if your child is struggling? Where do you go for help? And how can you help them traverse school, and flourish?
