A Community Conversation with Hartley School Thursday parent group – 27.5.10

Posted in
Hartley school parent group
Our Children and Young People’s team have recently run valuing diversity sessions with the year 4 classes and Louisa James, learning mentor and family worker, invited us to run a community conversation in her Thursday parent group.  The aim of this was to help with the bridge building between parents.  At this meeting there were 11 culturally diverse mothers from four different religions.

Tallat (Muslim Mediation Service) and Ros (Community Conversations) got the parents thinking together about some questions.  Everyone joined in and spoke from the heart - something we pretty much guarantee in Community Conversations!  They all also joined in the various games led by Louisa, many of which the children also play as part of the valuing diversity sessions: sun shines on, zip/zap/zop and name-and-action.
