Wellbeing

Wellbeing News:

Our wellbeing programs have started positively across the school this year, with a strong focus on supporting students’ social and emotional development. Small, targeted groups are currently running to help students build skills such as cooperation, communication, resilience and friendship. These sessions include engaging activities such as social skills groups, Lego-based learning and “Chill Skills” to help students develop strategies for managing emotions and building positive relationships.

In addition, classes are continuing to implement the Respectful Relationships curriculum, with a current focus on Emotional Literacy. This helps students recognise, understand and manage their emotions while developing empathy and respect for others.

It has been wonderful to see students actively participating in these programs and building the skills that help them feel safe, connected and confident at school.

A big thank you to Mrs Ramsdale for her work in this space so far this year.

2026 is our year to stand with the 1 in 26 people who will be diagnosed with epilepsy in their lifetime.

As we move towards Purple Day on March 26th, the world’s annual moment of unity for epilepsy awareness, we’re reminding everyone that this movement is global, urgent and growing.

Here in Australia, it’s estimated that 266,000 people are living with epilepsy: our families, friends, colleagues, students, carers and community members whose experiences are too often invisible.

This is our year to change that. Our year to amplify voices, dismantle stigma, educate communities, and build understanding. Our year to turn awareness into action. Join us and show your support by raising awareness and funds for epilepsy this March. Register for Purple Up today.

You can choose how to Purple Up! Wear purple, Decorate your space in purple, Host a purple-themed event

Because when we show up, team up and Purple Up, we make epilepsy visible and help build a world where everyone living with epilepsy feels seen, supported and understood.
