The Resilience Project Parent Information Session 

4 June, 2019 (7.00 - 8.30pm), Senior Learning Centre

One in seven primary school children have a mental illness. In response to this alarming statistic, in 2017 we adopted The Resilience Project as our whole-school wellbeing program. The Resilience Project team conduct emotionally engaging programs for students, parents and teachers using evidence-based approaches to building resilience, in order to develop mental health. 

We strongly encourage ALL parents to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to support your child and our whole-school wellbeing program – more details to follow.
