AFTER SCHOOL HOMEWORK PROGRAM
The Wellbeing Team at Lalor Secondary College in collaboration with ‘The Smith Family’ and ‘Whittlesea Community Connections’ provide support for students with their homework by delivering the After School Homework Program (ASH). ASH is on Tuesdays between 3pm – 4pm in the College Library. Teachers and trained volunteer tutors attend each session to assist students with work; students are encouraged to bring their digital devices for educational purposes. Students also have access to computers, internet, and library resources, whilst staff from the Wellbeing Team provide supervision and assist students getting themselves organised to complete work. The whole school educational initiative is open to all students. Parent / guardian / carer consent is required. Consent forms are available from the general office or the wellbeing space. Students who arrive after 3:30pm may not be allowed to participate unless they have a suitable reason. All staff are welcome and encouraged to attend.

IYC Rainbow Group Information
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: The Rainbow Group is a new personal development program/social support group at IYC for local LGBTIQA+ young people (aged 12-25) from The City of Whittlesea or neighbouring suburbs.
It is also a safe group for anyone who may be questioning their sexuality and/or gender identity and/or who doesn’t feel comfortable with any label.
In this program, young people can build positive connections with others, and can enhance their youth participation and empowerment and self-confidence whilst feeling a positive connection to their local community.
The activities that will be included in the program are going to be chosen by the young people in the program and what they want to do and are interested in, but a few that we have in mind include self-defence workshops and arts and crafts.
There will be one group running weekly starting on Monday 24/7/23 at Innovation Youth Centre (IYC) from 4-6 pm.
To join, please register with IYC staff on 9401 7959 or email us at info@iyc.org.au or you can send us a DM.
