The aims  of Mental Health Week are to raise awareness, help reduce the stigma around mental health and make way for more people to seek help and support.

 

 

In 2017 we offered a range of activities and events to include both staff and students.  Staff were able to enjoy a morning tea, a cooked breakfast and could experience a massage. Events for students included guest speakers from Batyr, a presentation from Motivational Media, a sausage sizzle and sessions in Connect focusing on mental health issues and seeking help.
