As part of its ongoing commitment to supporting the holistic development of students and their families, the Wynne Centre for Health and Wellbeing hosted a special presentation on Monday evening in the School Chapel, welcoming one of Australia’s leading parenting experts, Dr Justin Coulson. Dr Coulson is the co-host of Parental Guidance on Channel Nine and co-host of the Happy Families podcast – Australia’s most downloaded parenting podcast.

Dr Coulson’s presentation shared research-backed strategies for how parents and schools can more effectively connect with and support boys at home, in the classroom, and beyond.

Reflecting on the evening, Brad Gardner, Director of the Wynne Centre for Health and Wellbeing, said it was a privilege to welcome Dr Coulson back to Christ Church.

“His presentation was highly relevant to the developmental needs of boys, offering real insight into how we can better understand and support them through the challenges of adolescence,” he said.

“To have someone of Dr Coulson’s calibre sharing the latest research with our community has been an incredible opportunity.”

The Wynne Centre for Health and Wellbeing continues to lead important conversations about student development, parent engagement, and wellbeing education at Christ Church, ensuring boys are supported not just academically, but socially, emotionally, and personally throughout their Christ Church journey.
