Bowmore School Council has arranged for Toronto Public Health to run their “At Home Alone” workshop at Bowmore School. This will be a great way to get ready for the summer if you are considering starting to let your child spend some time at home alone.

A free, two-hour interactive workshop for parents and their 10 – 14 year old child. The parent and child will work together during the session to develop a personal safety and injury prevention plan to meet their unique family needs.

REGISTER NOW - We are also offering this opportunity to our neighbouring schools, and space is limited.

Registration forms are also available in the School office.

For more information on the workshop purpose & approach, visit www.toronto.ca/health/injuryprevention/youth/athomealone
