Wellbeing Hub

Next month our school will be celebrating Queensland Mental Health Week (4–12th October, 2025), with the theme Awareness, Belonging, Connection. 

A range of activities will be held across the week to promote wellbeing and community spirit. 

Please see the flyer for full details of the events happening at school. 

We encourage all students to get involved, connect with others, and take time to focus on their mental health.

eSafety News: Dealing with Distressing Online Content

The eSafety Commissioner has issued an update following reports of violent and distressing content circulating online. It is important that families are aware and prepared to support young people who may come across this material.

Young people who view distressing content may feel unsettled or have questions. Parents and carers are encouraged to:

• Check in and talk with their child about what they may have seen.
• Encourage device use in shared spaces where support can be offered.
• Report harmful material to the online platform or directly to eSafety via esafety.gov.au.
• Avoid reposting or sharing graphic content.

Support Resources

eSafety provides resources to help parents, young people and educators navigate online risks:

• Parents and Carers: guides to parental controls and online safety advice.
• Young People: “I saw something online I didn’t like” (primary) and “Dealing with disturbing content” (secondary).
• Educators: the eSafety Toolkit for Schools and Respond modules.

• Kids Helpline 1800 55 1800
• headspace (online or in-person support)
