24.01.2022 The importance of play!

21.01.2022 Hi Everyone Well, as they say, it's been a long time between drinks. What with schools being back and tutoring back on a roll, life has been full. If one keeps ...in touch with the 'goings-on' in the world and what is happening in our own back yard....one must sometimes wonder what it is we can do to help create a better world for our kids. Let me go back in time. In September, 2001, specifically 9/11 [a day embedded in every adult's memory], I had the opportunity to attend a full day seminar on "Motivating Boys". At that stage of my life my boys were 7 years old. I thought I knew a lot about kids till I got married and we had 3 of our own.....I learned a lot !!!!! The gentleman who presented that day had the auditorium in the palm of his hand. I had been to quite a few seminars with one presenter but nothing has ever come near what I heard and learned that day. A friendship was forged that day and a handshake has kept us working together for the past sixteen and a half years. That gentleman's name is Dr Ian Lillico and his photo appears below. To date I have heard him speak over 100 times and I am still entertained and educated. Ian will be in Brisbane and Ipswich next month doing a 4 hour session after school on "Students with Particular Needs". If you are associated with children it may be worth your while checking it out. Go to www.boysforward.com and do your due diligence. Some photos appear below....one of them is ours...can you pick it???!!! If you could pass this on to every one you know who has kids [or grand kids] or anyone who works with kids.....they will walk away inspired. Thanks for reading and....till next time...live, laugh and hug a lot Cheers Chris

19.01.2022 A day of rest for Ian after returning late last night from a successful trip to Launceston where it’s much colder than our Perth climate. Ian has been working with Riverside Cluster using Skype for regular catch ups with leadership teams followed by two visits to run workshops around boys literacy with an emphasis on reading. Once again the dedication of teachers and team leaders is most evident. It is a pleasure to work with professionals who continuously strive for excellence and care so much for their students’ well being. Ian has really enjoyed this time in Tasmania and is thankful for the warm hospitality offered.

19.01.2022 Useful resources for parents and teachers are available from the website. These are our best sellers.
