RUOK? Day

Last Thursday 9th September was RUOK? Day.  A national day of action to recognise the importance of asking others if they are ok. This year’s message is  Are they really OK? Ask them today!

This year our staff put together a short video clip for our school community which can be found on the Kurunjang Secondary College Facebook page. In addition to this, our students put together a video message about how to maintain your mental health. Some fantastic tips can be found in the video clip they put together and we thank those students who were involved.

Whilst RUOK? Day is a timely reminder to ask our friends, family, students and colleagues how they are feeling at the moment, we must recognise that asking on just one day of the year is not enough and something we should practice all the time. Our Student Support Services Team at Kurunjang Secondary College is available to support students and their families during remote learning circumstances by leaving a message on the school phone, or alternatively students can send the team a Microsoft Teams chat message.

Are you ok?
