R U OK? Day Celebrations at Girton

Last Thursday September 10th was RUOK? Day - a day to remember to check in on our friends, family, colleagues and neighbours. To assist our student body in asking this all-important question and then knowing how to respond to the answer (even if it is "No I am not OK") a group of Prefects put together the following video message:

In addition to this, students were invited to participate in a Competition to promote RUOK? Day. Senior School Students were asked to create a RUOK? meme and Junior School Students were asked to create a RUOK? Postcard. We were inundated with entries which left us in no doubt about the level of talent and creativity amongst our students but there can only be one winner (or a few actually!).

Congratulations to:

1st Place for his RUOK? meme

And remember, you don't need a special day to ask RUOK? - every day is RUOK? Day!
