Expo to explore opportunity

The ParentsNext Annual Networking Expo is returning for another year in St Albans.

This year’s event promises “a day full of opportunities, resources, and fun for the entire family,” ParentsNext program co-ordinator Samara Mabbot said.

On Monday, July 8, from 10am to 1pm, at the Bowery Theatre and St Albans Community Centre, Ms Mabbot said it will be a great chance to support and celebrate parents and their children in our community.

“Our Annual Networking Expo is a cornerstone event that brings together the community to support and uplift each other,” she said.

“Whether you are looking for support in education, employment, or parenting, or simply a fun day out with your kids, the ParentsNext Annual Networking Expo has something for everyone.”

Local and online TAFE providers will be present to help explore educational opportunities, as well as employers and employment services who are seeking workers.

The event is a chance to learn about the many services available to parents throughout the local area.

It also serves as a great day out for the whole family during the school holidays, with many incentives for kids to come along as well, including a magic show, face painting, balloon twisting, games, movies, and a lolly jar count.

This event is open to everyone, with bookings preferred due to catering services which will be provided.
