ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:

This practical workshop is for ALL parents and uses birthdays as a ‘transition template’ for raising responsible adults. It will begin by exploring the world that our children live in, the effects of parenting styles of the 21st Century and will then move into providing parents with practical help on how to create responsible, respectful, resourceful, resilient young adults. Parents will leave with a template of their own…an action plan that they can start putting into place immediately! A recording will be available if you cannot attend live.

About Andrew Lines:

Andrew is first and foremost husband to Becky and father to his four children and 3 step-children. (Yep, he has had his fair share of personal experience with raising children.) He trained as a Physical Education / Outdoor Education teacher and taught in schools for 25 years. His passion for health, fitness and providing students with positive and successful experiences in PE led to the publishing of Sport Covered, his exploration of teaching 23 sports using a games based approach to strengthen student’s development of game sense and their motivation to learn.

Each year about 10000 young people in over 100 schools are initiated into adulthood through his school based year-long Rite of Passage program ‘The Rite Journey’. This brings the total number of students having completed The Rite Journey to 50,000 from its beginning. He has worked with thousands of teachers in hundreds of schools to facilitate a process which honours the transition of our children into a responsible, respectful and resilient adulthood.

Andrew has been keen to create resources that help teachers and parents in building relationships with their students and children. The Rite Journey Feeling Cards are the first of his suite of card sets. In 2016 Andrew worked on creating a resource to promote conversation and connection specifically amongst men and boys and the ManMade Toolbox was born. In 2017 he teamed up with Jane Bennett to create his third Card resource, a set of conversation cards for women and girls, Woman Wise.

In 2018 Andrew created some resources which help parents ‘graduate responsibility’ with their children and assist in developing resourceful, responsible young men and women. This scaffolded process is called The Rite Journey Parenting Plan.
