STEM Café: Why does my brain do that?

“Why does my brain do that?” Understanding your complicated teenage brain

If you have ever wondered why you feel so strongly about things, why you feel you have to be perfect, why your moods go up and down, why you feel sleepy when the rest of the world is awake, or why your parents are so embarrassing then join Dr Dominique Thompson, an award winning GP, author and TEDx speaker to discover amazing facts about your brain.

Dr Dom specialises in teen and student mental health and wellbeing and understanding why adolescence is both exciting and exhausting. Come along to find out more and ask your questions.

Pupils, their families, and staff from BGS and BEP member schools are welcome. Parents/guardians and visitors wishing to attend should please meet in Reception where you will be met and taken to the venue. There is no need to book but it would be helpful to email stem@bgs.bristol.sch.uk if you intend to come to give an idea of numbers.
