Wellbeing Update

Wellbeing Team

It has been a busy term and we are thankful to hold many events that could not have occurred in the past 2 years due to the pandemic.

RU Okay day is a national initiative that takes place on September 8th.  It is to encourage everyone to ask people close to them, “RUOK?”, listen to the answer and use it as a conversation starter to encourage anyone who is struggling to reach out.  At James Busby High School our Wellbeing Ambassadors coordinated a number of fun activities, including  lolly guessing competitions, basketball, push up and honeycomb challenges with prizes to encourage the school community to come together and enjoy the week. Enjoying time together encourages positive vibes and promotes everyone’s wellbeing. 

Student Recognition Morning Teas were held this term for years 8, 9 and 10. Congratulations to the students who were nominated by their year advisors this term.  Students are chosen because they uphold our school values: Respect, Equality, Achievement and Safety on a daily basis.  Student recognition morning teas take place every term to celebrate our wonderful students who take every opportunity to thrive in our school community.
