Men of John XXIII
The Men of John XXIII initiative was established under the principles of The Fathering Project (established by former WA Citizen of the Year and John XXIII parent Dr Bruce Robinson) to enhance the fathering experience at John XXIII College.
Parenting has a profound effect on children. From a fathering perspective, a child's development can be significantly impacted in several key areas (Ref1):
- Social Skills and Relationships
- Mental and Physical Health
- School Management and Performance and
- Social Behaviours (i.e attitude towards tobacco, alcohol, drugs, bullying and adolescent sexual behaviour)
We encourage you to join the MOJTC in enhancing your fathering experience by joining them at the following activities for 2017:
