Students attend Pat Cronin Foundation's "Re-Thinking Anger" presentation

Today our Year 10-12 students participated in the Pat Cronin Foundation’s "Re-Thinking Anger" presentation, a powerful and thought-provoking session focused on promoting positive decision-making. Through real-life stories and expert insights, students explored practical strategies for managing anger, resolving conflict, and making safe choices in challenging situations.

Following last year’s "Violence is Never OK" session, today’s presentation served as an extension, helping students develop their own prevention strategies and further understand the impact of their choices.

This session aligns with our commitment to student wellbeing and personal development, equipping our young people with the skills to navigate emotions and relationships in a healthy way.  We encourage families to discuss the key messages at home (please see below) and continue these important conversations.
