Walk to Change the Story

On Wednesday the 27th of November Bairnsdale Secondary College had a huge turnout to go on the Walk to Change the Story which was organised by Gippsland Lakes Community Health. The day highlighted the importance for gender equality and the empowerment of women, and was a call to action against domestic violence.

It was a wonderful, and very warm day, it was great to see students befriending others and wandering around the stalls, engaging with community groups. We in Wellbeing also feel very proud that we saw some Bairnsdale Secondary College students supporting and working at community group stalls. We were also extremely proud to hear from passionate students that spoke on the day, both on stage and while on the walk.

Thank you to the number of staff and principals that attended on the day to support our students.

A big thank you to the students and families that attended, we believe the walk and speeches empowered a great number of our students to be active in standing up and speaking out against gendered violence.
