We were delighted to welcome so many parents from both French and International Streams to JL Auditorium on Tuesday 24 April. ‘Digital Wellness and Practical Action for Parents’ was a huge success. Parents were eager to hear from Ross Armitage, Head of Primary, and our excellent guest speakers Ian Brodie and Jeremy McCarthy, both parents themselves, whose presentations are in the related resources below right.
