St. Paul’s Jesuit School hosted a dynamic parenting session in the beginning of the year, spearheaded by the school counselor, Mr. Tejas Kolekar. Aimed at providing parents with valuable insights and strategies for effective parenting, the session proved to be a transformative experience for all involved.
With years of experience in counseling and child development, Mr. Tejas Kolekar brought a wealth of expertise to the table. As the resource person for the session, he guided parents through a series of engaging discussions and interactive workshops, covering a range of topics essential to modern-day parenting.
The session commenced with an exploration of positive parenting techniques, emphasizing the importance of fostering a nurturing and supportive environment at home. Mr. Kolekar highlighted the significance of positive reinforcement, effective communication, and setting clear boundaries in shaping children’s behavior and attitudes. Parents were encouraged to cultivate empathy, patience, and resilience in their approach to parenting, recognizing the profound impact of their interactions on their children’s well-being.
Throughout the session, Mr. Kolekar addressed common challenges faced by parents, offering practical strategies and solutions to navigate them effectively. From managing screen time and handling tantrums to promoting healthy sleep habits, parents gained valuable insights into addressing everyday parenting dilemmas with confidence and compassion.
One of the highlights of the session was the opportunity for parents to engage in open dialogue and share their own experiences and concerns. Mr. Kolekar facilitated meaningful discussions, creating a supportive space where parents could connect with one another, exchange ideas, and offer mutual support. This sense of community and camaraderie fostered a spirit of collaboration and empowerment among parents, inspiring them to approach their parenting journey with renewed confidence and enthusiasm.
As the session drew to a close, parents departed with a sense of empowerment and renewed commitment to their role as nurturers and guides for their children. Armed with practical strategies and insights gained from Mr. Kolekar’s expertise, they expressed gratitude for the opportunity to deepen their understanding of effective parenting practices and connect with fellow parents on a meaningful level.
St. Paul’s Jesuit School remains dedicated to supporting parents in their journey of parenthood, offering resources, guidance, and opportunities for meaningful engagement. By fostering a strong partnership between school and home, we strive to create a supportive environment where every child can thrive and reach their full potential.
