Health Highlights: Winter wellness Pop up Event!

On Thursday 11th June, the Department of Education Secondary School Nurses hosted a Winter Wellness Pop-Up Health Stand at Heathmont College during lunchtime outside the canteen.

Students and staff were invited to participate in a range of free, fun, and interactive activities focused on staying healthy and well throughout the winter months. The event provided an informal opportunity for students to test their knowledge, learn practical winter wellness strategies, and ask health-related questions in a supportive environment.

Key wellness messages included the importance of regularly cleaning mobile phones with antibacterial wipes, using hand sanitiser, staying up to date with flu vaccinations, engaging in daily physical activity, getting adequate sleep, and maintaining healthy habits to help prevent the spread of illness during winter.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by and got involved and also the Wellbeing Team who also supported the event. It was wonderful to see so many students and staff engaging with the activities and taking an active interest in their health and wellbeing.
