HMS Q&A are free, informal collaborative planning and discussion sessions on the new HMS syllabus. Come together to work through key implementation tasks, ask questions, and share your challenges with ACHPER NSW staff and colleagues. 

HMS Q&A is an opportunity to hear what others are doing and share your ideas – no questions or topics are off-limits. Each Q&A will focus on a topic, but you can also discuss wider issues and questions. 

This session will focus on how organisations and communities advocate for the health of young people.

Who can attend?  The session is open to all PDHPE teachers. However, it will be beneficial if you have a foundational knowledge of the new HMS syllabus, have started HMS planning and/or have attended an ACHPER NSW HMS workshop.
