Second course on being a father

A second series of Being A Dad workshops will be held at the at the Peninsula Community Centre following the popularity of the first.

The three-session program will be held in the evening and aims to help fathers gain skills necessary to build closer relationships with their children, according to the centre's community development worker, Ms Louise Manson.

Ms Manson said the workshops would cover information that would help fathers to learn how to connect with their children, discipline constructively and to "understand the special role of a father in a child's life".

Another aspect of the workshops would be information about "how to father from the inside out and understand what's important to being a better dad".

The evening workshops will be run at the Peninsula Community Centre on Monday, September 8, 15 and 22.

Session times will be 6:30pm to 9:30pm and the cost is $20 or $15 for concession holders but bookings are essential, on 4341 9333, as numbers are limited.

The Peninsula Community Centre is located at 93 McMasters Rd, Woy Woy.
