Hello Everyone. We are pleased to offer our "Secrets of Discipline" parenting workshops, which will be held on March 8th, 15th & 22nd (Monday mornings from 9:30 - 12 at our Center). Through this workshop, you will learn twelve keys to train, teach and manage your way to raising responsible children. Based on the book "Secrets of Discipline" by Ronald G. Morrish. Parents join to discuss and share information from the book.... Child care is provided. Due to COVID, space is very limited. To register, please email Tracy at [email protected]. In the email, please provide your name, the name(s) and age(s) of the child(ren) you will require daycare for, the area you are from, and your phone number. Priority will be given to those who have not taken this class before, so please also indicate if you are new to these sessions or have taken them previously. Thanks! :)
