Looking Forward in Secondary School

Mental Health Week

In Week 2, we will be raising awareness for Mental Health. We encourage all students across Prep to Year 12 to get involved in the range of activities that are on offer for the week. Our aim is to get students and staff to connect with each other and themselves, build on a sense of belonging and have some fun!

We will be launching the week on Monday 10 October with a ‘Wear your Clayfield College sports clothes to school day’Students are to wear their sports uniform to school on the day and enjoy the lunch time activities available on the Oval, such as ‘teacher versus student ball games”. There is no gold coin donation for this, and normal expectations regarding the wearing of the sports uniform is expected. 

 

Other highlights of the week include a “Paint and Chill’ at lunchtime on Wednesday, where students will be given a choice of paint by number canvases to choose from. Choices include flowers, unicorns, sloths, kangaroos, and mandalas. All materials are provided for this activity and students will be able to take their masterpieces home. 

 

We are wanting to turn the Japanese Courtyard into a hub of fun, laughter and friendship on this day, so students are encouraged to bring a friend and get painting! 

 

On Friday, we have a “furry surprise”. 

 

Posters will be up around the school informing students what is on and where the activities will be held.
