Wellbeing and Inclusion

What a wonderful term it has been for our Wellbeing and Inclusion team! From cultural celebrations to community connection and brand-new student programs, there has been so much happening — here's a look back at some of the highlights.

NAIDOC Celebrations Our school community came together to celebrate NAIDOC Week, with students taking part in a range of activities recognising and celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history, culture and achievements. It was wonderful to see such enthusiastic participation across the school.

Lyndale Community Pantry Our Lyndale Community Pantry continues to be a true community highlight, with over 80 families joining us each month. We are so proud of the connection and support this initiative provides to our families, and we look forward to welcoming everyone again at our next pantry on Tuesday 15 July.

WECARE Service A huge thank you to the wonderful team from WECARE, who support our students every week through engaging games and activities. Their consistent presence has made a real difference to so many of our young people.

Homework Support Program We've loved partnering with the brilliant team at Dandenong Community Learning Centre and the crew from Tapped In Melbourne, who delivered an outstanding 8-week homework program for our students. Thank you for your dedication and energy each week!

Blue Edge Program Congratulations to all students involved in the successful completion of this term's Blue Edge program — a fantastic achievement and a credit to everyone who took part.

Dance and Culture with La Mana Pasifika Our students have continued to enjoy weekly dance and culture sessions with the talented team from La Mana Pasifika. These sessions have been a vibrant and joyful celebration of Pasifika culture, and a real highlight for many of our students each week.

…and so much more! It has truly been a term filled with connection, culture and community.

As always, a heartfelt thank you to our incredible Wellbeing and Inclusion team for everything they do to support our students and families. Your dedication makes all of this possible.

Kind regards and happy holidays,
