Speaker - Judy Bailey & the Brainwave Trust

Judy Bailey Trustee of the Brainwave Trust at 5 May meeting
Brainwave is a charitable trust which exists to educate New Zealanders from all walks of life about the latest research in neuroscience. We now know that a child’s experiences from concepti
on to three largely determine how their brain develops, and whether they will become capable,  ontributing, well adjusted adults. The trust has a great deal of information they’d like to pass on – to parents, to educators, to health professionals, to social workers, to anyone who works with or parents children! Judy gave us a fascinating talk about the workings and growth of the childhood brain containing far too much material to record here.
