Each term they publish a calendar which will feature on the Parent’s Bulletin. In the past, a number of staff & families have participated in CCV programs & have spoken very highly of them. Please see the attached flyer as to what’s on offer in Term 2.

Headspace Regional Phone Counselling Service

A reminder that the headspace Regional Phone Counselling Service is still available for our secondary students to access. Some students feel more comfortable chatting with someone over the phone rather than face to face & this service provides confidential access to experienced counsellors. A number of our students have utilised this service in the past & have found it very useful. Please see Jess or Tash if you would be interested in receiving more information or arranging a referral.

Tuning into Teens Workshop

Tuning in to Teens is a six-week program that runs once a week for two hours. The program will teach you how to work with your own and young people in your life’s emotions in a way that help you to remain close and keep communicating. By practicing these skills, you are less likely to have as much conflict with the young people in your life and those young people are more likely to talk to you about the challenging issues they face. These are factors that have been found to reduce the risk of mental health and substance abuse problems. Please see the flyer attached for further details and to register.
