Roundtables
​

The roundtable session has up to one hour allocated, and you’re free to use as much or as little of that time as you wish.

You may decide whether you’d prefer to prepare a few guiding discussion points in advance or let the conversation develop more organically on the day.

Parent Day
​​

Parent Day has been especially designed for parents and carers. Professionals and practitioners are also welcome, to hear the latest information about current parenting topics to pass on to families they work with.

​

  • When will Parent Day be held?

Parent Day will be held on Saturday 7 June 2025. Registered ticket holders can access the event when it is broadcast from 10:00am-4:00pm AEST (Australian Eastern Standard Time), and can watch the presentations on demand for two weeks after the event.

​​​

  • Where will Parent Day be held?

Parent Day will be held online, in an online conference portal called vFairs. After you register and buy your ticket, you will receive a confirmation email. Closer to the event date, you will receive information via email that explains how to access the online event portal.

​

  • When will the presentations be available on-demand?

Presentations will be made available in the on-demand library as soon as possible after they are first broadcast, but there may be a delay of 1-2 hours between the advertised broadcast time (in AEST) and the time the presentations are available to watch on-demand.

​

  • How long will I have access to the videos for?

The on-demand library will be available for two weeks - until midnight on Sunday 22 June 2025.

​

  • What is included in my ticket?

Included in your ticket is access to a full day program of online presentations from leading experts on a wide range of parenting topics. You will also have access to the presentations for a period of two-weeks post event.

​​

  • Will I have direct access to the expert presenters?

Where possible, the expert presenters will be present to answer your questions in the text-based Q&A chat during the time their presentation is first broadcast.

​

  • How do I access Parent Day if I’m in a timezone other than AEST?

Parent Day will be first broadcast between 10:00am-4:00pm AEST on Saturday 7 June. If you’d like to watch it as it is broadcast, you can use a time and date planner to calculate the time in your own timezone.

If it’s not convenient for you to watch it during this time, you can watch the whole event on demand for a period of two weeks post-event – just keeping in mind it may take us 1-2 hours to upload each presentation into the portal after it is first broadcast.

​​

  • When do ticket sales end?

Ticket sales will remain open so you can purchase a ticket right up until the event. If you missed the streamed event on 7 June but would like to watch the recordings, you can purchase a ticket any time during the two week period while videos remain available.
