Parents urged to get with the PLAN

Is it time to have a conversation with your teen or tween about drinking and vaping? If so, listen up…The PLAN Project (run by the Public Health Service and Health Action Trust) aims to help parents have conversations with their children and create a family plan around alcohol and vaping.

At the invitation of Golden Bay High School’s Home and School Association (HSA), local health educator Karen Petrie (Te Whatu Ora) will be presenting The PLAN Project to interested parents for one hour at the end of this month.

Says Karen, “The objective of The PLAN is to provide a set of tools and resources to help parents and caregivers delay their children drinking alcohol and vaping. It provides an opportunity for parents and caregivers to proactively plan how they will manage their expectations around their child/children drinking alcohol and vaping.”

Says Karen, “The evening will consist of an introduction to The PLAN Project; quiz; small group conversations and questions around strategies to keep your teen safer around alcohol; guidance on new resources with tips to help parents.”

Rutherford book launch

Attendees will be provided with a take-home pack to support and reinforce The PLAN.

This is the second time the HSA has supported the presentation of The PLAN to parents and caregivers of children/ teens in Golden Bay.

The chair, Lou Soper tells The GB Weekly that “Golden Bay High School Home and School see our involvement with The PLAN as supporting our purpose of providing academic, cultural, and sporting opportunities within our school community. We believe there is a need within our community to help parents manage underage drinking and vaping.”

The HSA believe the presentation is relevant to all parents and caregivers of children/teens from Years 7-13.

The presentation will be held at 7pm on Wedneday 29 March in the Golden Bay High School gymnasium. Entry is free. Supper will be provided.

RSVPing by 22 March 2023 would be appreciated for catering purposes. Email: homeandschool@gbh.school.nz, or text name and number attending to ph 027 491 2194, or scan the QR code in the advertisement on page 19 of this issue.

News In Brief

“Maria and I have worked together on three books over the last four years but actually only finally met in person last week when we began this book launch,” says Alistair.

“This book has attracted a lot of attention so far,” Maria added. “Ernest’s story is a really positive message for children to not give up on your dreams. I had to rewrite the book three times to get it right, too.”

SUBMITTED

GB Weekly writer and illustrator Alistair Hughes with author Maria Gill (pictured above) launched their latest book collaboration Ernest Rutherford Just an Ordinary Boy in Nelson on Monday night. A larger than expected audience at the Provincial Museum listened to Maria and Alistair speak about their writing and illustration process, and the challenges involved in depicting the life of one of the world’s greatest scientists for younger readers. The presentation ended with a safe experiment involving radioactive objects and a geiger counter (which Rutherford assisted in the invention of), demonstrated with the help of a young audience member.
