Wellbeing Update

On Wednesday 18th May, the Year 11 and 12 students attended a presentation by Batyr. Our guest speakers, Cass, Troy, Tien, Liv and Bear spoke to the students over a 90 minute period with the aim to eliminate the stigma of mental health.

The students heard real life experiences of mental health challenges, related to themes around managing stress and school challenges.

Students learned some practical strategies to manage stress, and help to understand when stress is helpful and unhelpful.

We want to teach students that it is okay not to be okay, and that asking for help is a step in the right direction.

We are so grateful to Batyr for providing our students with these insightful and informative sessions.

If your child is struggling, we encourage you to reach out to us.
