Kai Fella Workshops

This week, all students and staff at the College participated in Kai Fella workshops facilitated by the Kai Fella Foundation. These engaging, age‑appropriate sessions were designed to challenge stereotypes, amplify student voices, and promote personal development.

The workshops encouraged participants to think critically, build confidence, and develop respectful relationships. With a strong focus on social awareness and individual growth, the program provided a meaningful opportunity for reflection on values, attitudes and behaviours in a supportive environment.

We believe these sessions have been a valuable and thought-provoking experience for all year levels, helping to foster a more inclusive, respectful and empowered school community.
