Say no to Vaping........

In term 3 the students will be participating in a Vaping prevention program aimed at educating students and helping them make healthy and informed choices.

 

Parents, carers, schools, and community all play an important role in protecting children and young people from, and educating them about, the harmful effects of smoking and vaping.

Research from VicHealth shows that young people care about what their parents, carers and older siblings think and do about vaping. 

The Department of Education has developed resources to help you learn more about the health risks of smoking and vaping. The resources include advice about how to talk to children and young people about vaping, and where to get support.
