Student Wellbeing 

Welcome back to Term 2 everyone. We have many exciting events happening this Term. 

The LifeChanger program will be supporting our Year 6 students towards the end of Term 2 on the 19th of June. We will also be celebrating Reconciliation week in Week 7 and our NAIDOC week celebrations will be held on Thursday the 27th of June. 

Welcome back Nicole! 

This Term Nicole Cavallaro will return to ETRPS, as our Primary Welfare Officer. Her working days are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. 

She returns on Thursday the 18th of April. We are looking forward to welcoming her back and working alongside her in the Wellbeing team. 

Wellbeing Structure in Term 2

As we welcome Nicole back, we want to thank Kimmie for her support to all of our students and families during Term 1. Kimmie will continue to support Wellbeing this Term, including supporting a variety of programs such as Hands On Learning, SPAIDES and Social Emotional Learning groups. She will continue to work within the Wellbeing team, supporting staff and students on Wednesdays. 

Tegan will continue her role as our Mental Health and Wellbeing Leader on Monday-Thursday. 

Please contact Tegan, Nicole or Kimmie if you require any Wellbeing support.
