Whaingaroa Writers World - Lance King

Lance King will host a discussion on Courage, Resilience and Failing Well – about parenting in today’s post-Covid digital children age. Lance is an internationally recognized author, teacher, and workshop facilitator who, in the last 28 years, has worked in over 300 schools in 39 countries with many thousands of students, teachers and parents. He is the author of seven books on the skills of thinking and learning, is married with four grown-up children, lives locally and divides his time between delivering workshops around the world and writing. Lance says, ‘Today’s children are a unique group in the history of the world defined by engagement with the internet since birth plus the experience of the Covid pandemic. This seminar will show parents all the vital digital and non-digital skills their children need to maximise their success at school, at university and in all future careers and business opportunities and will give parents many practical tips on how to bring up children who are resilient, courageous and actively engaged with both the real and the digital worlds.”  All welcome, koha entry.
