Please see below for details of some interesting Webinars:
The ‘’Coping with Christmas’’ webinar is designed for anyone who is supporting someone who is suffering with an eating disorder. This is open to anyone who would like to attend, they can just shoot me an email on <8>info@bodywhys.ie
.
We also have our PiLaR program which is a free four week course for carers of those with eating disorders and how to handle some of the challenges that can arise through the journey. The next group will be held in 2024, but carers can sign up. This doesn’t necessarily have to be parents, but can be siblings, friends, partners, etc.
We also have our dedicated helpline and email helpline support. You do not need to have an eating disorder to avail of these services.
We also have various Support Groups available, depending on the age of the individual.
Please email <24>info@bodywhys.ie for details of all of the above.
Organisers have provided the correct link and send apologies.
Dear parents,
There is a free webinar taking place next Tuesday the 14th of November at 7pm called The importance of sleep for our teenagers. The main speaker is Lucy Wolfe and she will be giving some information and guidance around this topic. Lucy is best known for the books she has written on sleep for young children, but she has prepared some very useful material specifically for this webinar and the parents of teenagers.
You can register for this free webinar using this link: HERE
Parents can also submit questions on the night through chat or in advance by email to info@planetyouth.ie.

We will hand out the results to the girls today during the last class in Rosary Hall, after which they will be able to celebrate their success with their peers and teachers.
Candidates can also access their results online from 4pm and they will be given instructions on how to do so.
This is a long awaited and exciting day and we wish the girls all the best.
The girls will be allowed to come to school on Thursday 19th October at 10:50am and can have a well deserved rest that morning.
