About this Event
Raising an active tween or teen can feel like a balancing act between schoolwork, sports, social life and making sure they’re eating and sleeping enough.
Do you ever wonder if your teen is doing too much sport or perhaps not enough? Are you trying to balance their schoolwork, training schedule, social life and sleep, while also making sure they’re eating well?
Join us for Strong Bodies, Strong Minds, an event designed to help parents support their active teens in a healthy, sustainable way.
We’re thrilled to collaborate with to bring you professional insights from Dr Sital Khistriya (Family Physician, Osler Health) and Vanessa McNamara (Dietitian, Osler Health). Together, they will explore how to fuel and support teens so they can thrive physically and mentally while navigating the challenges of school, sport and growing up.
This interactive session will help answer the questions parents ask most:
- Is my teen overtraining or just very active?
- How do I balance their sleep, study, and sporting commitments?
- Should they be using protein powders or energy drinks?
- How much food does an active teen really need to keep up with their schedule?
What We’ll Cover:
Tween & Teen Development – Understanding growth, hormones, and changing needs
Mental Health – Spotting stress, burnout, and supporting emotional resilience
Nutritional Health – Fuelling for performance, recovery, and healthy growth
Social Pressures – Helping your teen manage peers and expectations
Parental Support – Finding a balance between school, sport, rest, and family time
Who Should Attend:
Parents looking to better understand and support their tween or teen’s growth, nutrition, mental health, and wellbeing while balancing the demands of school, sport, and life.
Light refreshments included!
We look forward to supporting you on your parenting journey - it takes a village!
See you there!
