Peer Support 

Training for 2022

PEER SUPPORT

Friday 3rd December saw an impressive collection of Year 10s gather at the Sports Club, for our annual Peer Support Training Day. In preparation for leading small groups of next year's Year 7s. They played a range of games designed to test their communication and leadership skills. It was particularly pleasing to see individuals working with other students they didn't necessarily know well. 

 

Many thanks to Amber Murray for helping with catering, along with Gen Keenan, Matt Callaway, Rachel Whipp, and Justin Coghill for training our wonderful new leaders.

 

Their maturity was on display on Tuesday when leaders ran a session as part of Orientation Day. While the awkwardness of those first group meetings is unavoidable, all groups made a real effort to present with confidence and put the younger students at ease. 

 

Hopefully, everyone is looking forward to some fun and interactive Peer Support sessions in Term 1, 2022.
