Engagement & Wellbeing

Resilience, Rights & Respectful Relationships: 

In 1/2 Lockett we have been learning to manage our stress. We have discussed some of the day-to-day activities or interactions that may cause us stress. We each drew what our very own Stress Monster looks like and recorded how our body and mind might feel in a stressful situation. We then discussed how we can help to manage our Stress Monster when it appears throughout the day.

Our Stress Management unit has come to an end and students now have skills that will hopefully be useful throughout their lives. 

Students learnt to identify and describe personal coping skills and explain how these contribute to family and school life. They also discussed and practiced self-calming strategies to manage themselves in stressful situations. 

Event for Parents and Carers

We would like to advise parents that the Centre Against Sexual Assault, Central Victoria, have organised an event which marks Sexual Assault Awareness Month throughout April. This event is aimed at community members, including parents and carers, and is titled 

‘Maree Crabbe on pornography, young people and sexuality’, this session will explore:

• What parents need to understand about pornography and its influence on young people’s sexual understandings and expectations.
• How parents can support their children’s healthy social and sexual development in an age of pornography.

 Details here:

• The Bendigo Bank Theatre The Capital, 50 View Street, Bendigo

A huge congratulations to our 2025 SRC team! They’ve put in a lot of effort and already made some fantastic improvements! They will be presented with their badges during tomorrow's assembly.

Our first initiative was to organize a new recess-time club! After gathering ideas from classes, we narrowed it down to the top three options: Mindfulness Club, New Skill Club, and Boardgame Club.

There was a clear favourite… and it will be revealed during tomorrow's assembly!

Our SRC representatives have also started helping select sensory items for classrooms. As part of our 2024 SRC action plan, we’ve launched a school-wide 'mini upgrade' to purchase mindfulness and sensory items for every grade! Classes have started ordering items based on the suggestions from our SRC. We’ll keep you updated and share some of the new resources in the upcoming term.
