Family Youth & Children_Parents Support Group
The Vietnamese Parents Support Group has been running for nearly six years. In September last year the group moved from Richmond West Primary School to 110 Elizabeth St. Community Hall in Richmond.
Parents meet every Tuesday morning during school terms from 10AM to 12PM with morning tea provided to share concerns and ideas whilst learning new skills such as strategy to help their children with homework, parental and positive parenting programs. In addition, parents will be encouraged to participate in a range of activities such as health education, sport activities, cooking and handicraft classes, and family outings that enhances quality of family life.
