'Seasons for Growth' Program

Learning to live with change and loss

Br Tony Cummins

Change and loss are issues that affect all of us at some stage in our lives. At St Bede’s College, we recognise that when changes occur in families through death, separation, divorce and related circumstances, young people may benefit from learning how to manage these changes effectively. We are therefore offering a very successful education program called Seasons for Growth which will commence in Week 2 of Term 4. This program is facilitated in small groups and is based on research which highlights the importance of social support and the need to practise new skills to cope effectively with change and loss. The program focuses on issues such as self-esteem, managing feelings, problem-solving, decision-making, effective communication and support networks.

 

If you think your child/children would benefit from Seasons for Growth we would encourage you to talk to them about participating in the program. St Bede’s College is pleased to be able to offer this important program and we are confident that it will be a valuable learning experience for those who request to be involved. If you require further information or would like to register for the program, please contact:

Parents and Friends Committee

Fathers' and Carers' Day Breakfast

 

On Tuesday 30 August, Mentone Campus welcomed over 500 students and their Fathers/Father-figures for a morning of food and celebration. 

 

Guests were welcomed at 6.45am with a hot breakfast, a small gift and a photo keepsake. Principal Deb Frizza, Parents and Friends President, Lauren Malouf welcomed our families, with guest speaker and 'Old Collegian' Daniel Bull Daniel inspiring all with his recounts of his world record mountaineering successes.

 

Thank you to the Parents and Friends association, and every person who volunteered their time to ensure this event was a success.
