Omega 3 link to youth educational achievement
Recently I co-hosted a event for youth workers within the City of Salisbury as part of the councils support of the sector.
The guest speaker was Dr Natalie Sinn from the UniSA and she spoke about the research occuring in this state (and indeed across the world).
It was a fantastic presentation that really made everyone think about youth disengagement, diet and the link to omega-3 fatty acids.
The presentation made me think as to whether in a large number of circumstances disengagement is just a symptom and that we should be investing more time in treating the problem.
If you want a copy of the powerpoint presentation flick me an email on rhenke@salisbury.sa.gov.au
If you want to go on the invite list for future youth workers networking events in Salisbury SA, email Linda on lweiss@salisbury.sa.gov.au with a brief note.
