P&F Parent Forum: Parenting and Leading Gen Z and Gen Alpha
P&F Parent Forum: Parenting and Leading Gen Z and Gen Alpha
The P&F warmly welcomes all parents and caregivers of
Mount St Benedict College to our upcoming Parent Forum.
P&F Parent Forum: Parenting and Leading Gen Z and Gen Alpha
Today’s parents are navigating a vastly different world from the one they grew up in. Raising Gen Z and Gen Alpha means guiding children and teens shaped by hyper-connectivity and rapid technological change in the era of the Great Screenage. This session will explore the unique challenges of parenting Gen Z – the first true digital natives – as they transform into adulthood, and raising Gen Alpha, a generation growing up in an even more digitally immersive environment.
The forum will explore data-driven insights on the distinct differences between Gen Z and Gen Alpha, examining the formative experiences that shape their unique perspectives, behaviours, and needs. This session will also discuss how parents can effectively support and empower these generations, from managing screen time and digital discipline to fostering real-world connections and resilience.
Presenter: Ashley Fell Social researcher, TEDx speaker and Director of Advisory at McCrindle.
Date: Wednesday, 17 September
Time: Arrive at 6.30pm for a 7.00pm start.
Venue: Mount St Benedict College, Hildegard Theatre.
Cost: $10 per person (includes a light supper on arrival and lucky door prizes).
RSVP: Friday 12 September. Numbers are limited. Click

Parking: Limited parking is available within the College grounds. Parking is recommended in the surrounding streets to the College.
