SUMMARY:Adolescent Allies: Parenting Beyond Childhood
DESCRIPTION:Some of the challenges that come with parenting tweens and teenagers can feel tough and overwhelming at times. Families may be navigating struggles with school attendance\, body image\, social media use (despite the ban!)\, alcohol or other drug use\, or changes in behaviour. Our “babies” are growing up—moving through puberty\, shifting friendships\,\nand sometimes forming intimate relationships—while parents and caregivers are often juggling work\, volunteering\, caring responsibilities\, and the needs of other children. \nThis is where Adolescent Allies comes in! A fortnightly group for parents and caregivers who are parenting beyond childhood. Adolescent Allies come together for social connection\, with a sprinkle of conversations about topics relevant to this age and stage of parenting. Supported by a Community Support Worker\, the aim of Adolescent Allies is\, to recognise the importance of staying connected to ourselves and to our young people during this important stage of development. Adolescent Allies creates space for parents to reflect\, share\, and strengthen their capacity to be steady\, compassionate allies to the adults their children are becoming—so no one has to navigate this season alone. \nCome to share a nibble and a cuppa and stay for conversations. The group runs fortnightly on Tuesday evenings\, 4.30 – 6pm during school terms\, and is delivered in a hybrid option via Zoom – meaning that if you can’t attend in person there is an option to attend online. \nUseful Links: \n\nHeadspace Parent space. Resources to support you to support your teen. headspace.org.au/parents\nOnline parenting course for all ages\, including teenagers. triplep-parenting.net.au/qld-en/triple-p/\nRaising Children.net.au is The Australian Parenting Website support services for families of teens raisingchildren.net.au/grown-ups/services-support/services-families-\nof-teens\nParentline – telephone support service 1300 301 300\, with online information available and web chat counselling 8am-9pm 7 days a week. parentline.com.au

SUMMARY:Tools for Teens 14-16 years - Tell your Daughters
DESCRIPTION:In this free workshop your daughter will learn all about healthy relating – both relating to herself\, her emerging sexual identity\, and relating to others – the people she may feel attracted to or attraction from. \n\nEmpowered Relating: Consent & Communication\nSafe Relating: Contraception & Connection\nHealthy Relating: Red Flags & Green Flags\n\nPlease Note: \n\nThe workshop is for all those identifying as daughters aged 14-16 years.\nThis workshop will contain specific information about sexual activity\, sexual identity and sexual relating.\nThe information will be delivered in a fun\, age appropriate\, palatable\, and gentle way.\nThe workshop will be structured around “practical tools” for your daughter to use (mindset\, communication\, emotional regulation).\nThe workshop will be phone-free (Natalie will have a basket where she collects and store devices at the beginning and they can check their phones in the break if they need to).\n\nThere will be three parts: \n\nCommunication tools – we will look at what consent really means when it comes to sexual situations and how to confidently and cringe-free advocate for safe sex (aka Healthy relating\, consent and communication) This is important because while most teens today have a basic understanding of consent they also need opportunities to practice communicating it in a safe environment.\nEmbodiment tools – we will cover sexual anatomy and how to keep sex safe with regards to both contraception and also feeling safe in our body\, and trusting it’s signals (aka Safe relating\, contraception and connection) This is important because when your daughter has knowledge of\, and confidence in\, her own body she knows that she is the source of her own power and she is less likely to outsource it to others.\nRelationship tools – we will look at relationship red flags and green flags\, and cover strategies for dealing with red flags across both digital and in-person relating (Aka Healthy relating – red flags and green flags) This is important because when we teach our daughters to recognize potential warning signs in relationships they are able make informed decisions about their well-being and safety.\n\nThere will be an opportunity for anonymous Q&A at the end. If anything of concern comes up during the workshop Natalie will feedback to you afterwards in my reflection email to all parents. \n(The workshop focuses on female born bodies) \nParent/caregiver pre-workshop evening – Wednesday\, 11 March 7pm-8pm \nIn the parent/caregiver evening Natalie briefly covers the material to be presented to the children during the workshop. She will answer any of your questions\, and share a stack of resources with you\, including some of her collection of books that may be helpful for you and your child. \nNot only is it so important (life changingly important) to teach our kids the things they need to know BEFORE they need to know them\, but also we need to give them opportunities to practice the tools. It is Natalie’s intention that these workshops are a safe and fun space to practice and become familiar with the words and tools they can use when and if they need to. \nAbout the Presenter \nNatalie Stockell is an educator\, mum of two\, and advocate for positive\, inclusive sex education. She founded Tell Your Daughters to address the gaps she saw in school-based sex ed and now delivers engaging\, age-appropriate workshops for tweens\, teens\, and their parents. With a Master’s in Psychology and a calm\, compassionate presence\, Natalie combines evidence-based knowledge with deep empathy to support young people as they navigate consent\, relationships\, and online life. \nAlongside her work with Tell Your Daughters\, Natalie works with Women’s Health and Equality Queensland (WHEQ)\, where she co-designs and facilitates sex education workshops and resources for women\, girls\, and gender-diverse people. Her work at WHEQ also spans broader health promotion initiatives focused on mental health\, respectful relationships\, and gender equality. \nWhat to tell your Daughter \nThis isn’t specifically sex ed\, and telling any tween/teen they are going to a sex ed workshop is going to feel awkward for them. So simply telling your child they are going to a “Tools for teens” workshop is enough. If they want more information it is up to you what you tell them\, you could say there will be some talk about the messages from the media\, and also how to deal with sticky conversations with your friends\, that type of thing. They might feel more comfortable going with a friend so please let any other parent/caregiver of your daughter’s friends know about this workshop date. \nNatalie’s primary goals for the workshop are that the girls have fun\, and they feel comfortable with her and the content. Her secondary goals are that they leave feeling like their voice matters\, their ‘No” is valid\, and they know their body is both normal and powerful. \nQuestions? \nIf you have any questions please contact Susan\, Coordinator Community Development at Pomona & District Community House on 07 5485 2427 or admin@pomonacommunityhouse.org.au. \nThanks to our Funders \nNeighbourhood Centres Qld – Queensland Women and Girls’ Health Promotion Community Seed Funding. \nNeighbourhood Centres Qld is the peak body for Neighbourhood Centres in Queensland. Our sector represents the largest community-led infrastructure in Qld.

SUMMARY:Tools for Tweens & Teens 11-13 years - Tell your Daughters
DESCRIPTION:In this free workshop your daughter will learn that her body is unique\, it is her own\, and it is powerful. This will lay the foundations for a healthy and loving attitude towards both her own body and her emerging sexuality.  This is such a beautiful and powerful day for your daughters\, the information presented will be foundational and also empowering\, setting them up for some healthy ways of feeling\, thinking and behaving in their future intimate relationships.\n\nBody Positivity: Media Myths & Diversity\nBody Autonomy: Consent & Communication\nEmpowered Anatomy: Knowledge & Self Connection\n\n\nPlease Note: \n\nThe workshop is for all those identifying as daughters aged 11-13 years.\nThis is not an explicit workshop about sex\, but it will lay important foundations for healthy sexual relating in the future.\nThe information will be delivered in a fun\, palatable\, age appropriate and gentle way.\nThe workshop will be structured around “practical tools” for your daughter to use (mindset\, communication\, emotional regulation).\nThe workshop will be phone-free (Natalie will have a basket where she collects and store devices at the beginning and they can check their phones in the break if they need to).\n\nThere will be three parts: \n\nMindset tools – we will look at the effects of the media on how we feel\, and we will begin to teach critical thinking (aka Body positivity\, media myths and diversity) This is important in this day and age of increased social media everything we see can be manipulated digitally and consequently that which isn’t normal becomes normalised.\nCommunication tools – we will look at lots of ways to say “No” in tricky (non- sexual) situations with your friends and family (aka Body autonomy\, consent and communication). This is important because it is one thing knowing that something doesn’t feel right\, yet it is a whole nother thing having the tools to know what to say in response.\nEmbodiment tools – we will look at the proper female anatomy and the role our biology/nervous system has with regards to our emotions and feeling safe in our body\, and trusting its signals (aka Empowered anatomy\, pleasure and self connection). This is important because when your daughter has knowledge of\, and confidence in\, her own body she knows that she is the source of her own power and she is less likely to outsource it to others.\n\nThere will be an opportunity for anonymous Q&A at the end of the workshop. If any concerns arise\, I will follow up with you in a reflection email sent to all parents. \n(The workshop focuses on female born bodies) \nParent/caregiver pre-workshop evening – Wednesday\, 11 March November 6pm-7pm \nIn the parent/caregiver evening Natalie briefly covers the material to be presented to the children during the workshop.

Her work at WHEQ also spans broader health promotion initiatives focused on mental health\, respectful relationships\, and gender equality. \nWhat to tell your Daughter \nThis isn’t specifically sex ed\, and telling any tween/teen they are going to a sex ed workshop is going to feel awkward for them. So simply telling your child they are going to a “Tools for teens” workshop is enough. If they want more information it is up to you what you tell them\, you could say there will be some talk about the messages from the media\, and also how to deal with sticky conversations with your friends\, that type of thing. They might feel more comfortable going with a friend so please let any other parent/caregiver of your daughter’s friends know about this workshop date. \nNatalie’s primary goals for the workshop are that the girls have fun\, and they feel comfortable with her and the content. Her secondary goals are that they leave feeling like their voice matters\, their ‘No” is valid\, and they know their body is both normal and powerful. \nQuestions? \nIf you have any questions please contact Susan\, Coordinator Community Development at Pomona & District Community House on 07 5485 2427 or admin@pomonacommunityhouse.org.au. \nThanks to our Funders \nNeighbourhood Centres Qld – Queensland Women and Girls’ Health Promotion Community Seed Funding. \nNeighbourhood Centres Qld is the peak body for Neighbourhood Centres in Queensland. Our sector represents the largest community-led infrastructure in Qld.

SUMMARY:Community Screen-printing Session for International Women's Day
DESCRIPTION:Pomona & District Community House (PCH) are inviting everyone to come along on Saturday\, 7 March to a community screen-printing session for International Women’s Day and Qld Women’s Week.  What we wear can share how we care. \nInternational Women’s Day 2026  \nDid you know there are two different #tags for International Women’s Day – we just found out.   \n#BalanceTheScales is UN Women Australia’s 2026 theme and is tied to Commission of the Status for Women\, focusing on structural and systemic barriers. It’s a social movement. \n#GiveToGain 2026 them from a private for-profit website corporation. \n“The key message overall is a promise to every woman and girl – regardless of background or identity – that they should be safe\, heard and free to shape their own lives. Yet in 2026\, discriminatory laws\, policies and practices persist. Gender-based violence remains widespread\, and structural barriers block too many from seeking or receiving justice. \nThese barriers are not inevitable. They are built and they can be dismantled. Equity is not about advantage for some; it’s about dignity\, safety\, and fairness for all. [it’s about collaboration & working together] \nWhen women and girls stand equal\, families are stronger\, workplaces are fairer\, communities thrive\, and society becomes safer for everyone.” (https://www.iwd.net.au/) \nBring along your own light coloured fabric t-shirt or tote bag\, and the PCH team will help you screenprint it.  They’ll have pre-set screens of key messages or you can cut your own stencil design to show the women in our community that they are valued.  They’ll also have pre-screened t-shirts and bracelets available for a small donation that goes towards the Mummas Village program.  The Social 12-17yrs crew are also making muffins! \nThe recent figures published in the Qld government’s ‘Women’s Economic Security and Wellbeing Report 2025‘ are distressing. Record numbers of women are facing homelessness\, with those over 55 years being the fastest growing cohort\, and gender pay gaps are leaving women vulnerable to cost of living pressures. Sadly\, there are unprecedented rates of domestic and family violence which is disproportionately impacting the safety of women and girls; and yes it is happening here in our community. \nPCH know the hinterland communities care and believe that together we can find ways for our villages to be places where all are safe and all can thrive.  Drop by\, say hi and be part of the solution. \nResearch shows that healthy relationship education helps in reducing gender-based violence. PCH are running free workshops for tweens/teens\, and for adults raising teens. Workshop facilitator Natalie Stokell will also be available on 7 March 9:30am-11:30am for ‘Chats with Nat’ a 10min private chat where adults raising teens can ask their questions to take the awkwardness out of talking about consent and relationships with your teen.  \nUpcoming workshops by Natalie Stokell at Pomona & District Community House: \n\nTools for Tweens and Teens workshops on bodies\, consent and healthy relationships:\n\nTell your daughters 11-13 years\nTell your daughters 14-16 years\nTell your sons 12-14 years\nTell your sons 14+ years\n\n\nPixels & Perspective for 14+ year old teens\nBeyond the Birds & the Bees: a parent/caregiver’s guide to teens\, screens and online safety\n\nQuestions? \nIf you have any questions please contact Susan\, Coordinator Community Development at Pomona & District Community House on 07 5485 2427 or admin@pomonacommunityhouse.org.au. \nThanks to our Funder \nNeighbourhood Centres Qld – Queensland Women and Girls’ Health Promotion Community Seed Funding. \nNeighbourhood Centres Qld is the peak body for Neighbourhood Centres in Queensland. Our sector represents the largest community-led infrastructure in Qld.
