About the Event:
This event aims to enhance the mental well-being of children, parents, and families, focusing on managing screen time, including social media and video games. Representatives from the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) and The Grove will lead discussions, sharing research on the benefits and drawbacks of technology. They will also provide strategies to optimize mental and physical health by changing or adapting existing habits. The presentation will last approximately 45 minutes, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session. Refreshments will be provided.
John McCrae is offering limited childcare support for parents/caregivers attending the event. We can accommodate childcare for either 26 or 30 children, depending on their age (26 for kindergarten ages, 30 for grade 1 and up). If you need childcare, please specify your requirements when registering for the event, including the number of children and their ages. Spots will be secured for the first 26 children registered.
