Mothers & Women

Conscious that parents are the first educators of their children, Heathgrove seeks to work alongside parents to reinforce values taught at home. We are passionate about supporting parents in encouraging a positive development of their daughters.

  • Doctrine Classes

    Do I know my Catholic Faith so that it shapes my thinking and my doing? This series of talks will help us keep alive our desire to encounter Him, and to make it a reality in our own life while at the same time increasing the depth of understanding our faith. The talks will cover the Catechism of the Catholic Church divided into the following sections: The Creed, The Sacraments, The Commandments and Life of Prayer.

    Doctrine classes are held at Heathgrove Study Centre in Hawthorn East and Harkaway Hills College in Narre Warren North.

These activities help parents deepen their insight into their work as the primary educators of their children. Course topics cover parenting skills, strategies for building a healthy and nurturing home environment and character building for parents and their children.
