Mental Health Practitioner Initiative

Our school is excited to be part of the Mental Health Practitioner's Initiative. This initiative supports our school to provide a mental health practitioner for 1 day a week (Tuesday), which adds further experience and skills to our strong wellbeing team. Kat Patten is our new mental health practitioner, and started this term. 

Students and parents are advised to contact Jackie Kerr or Kat Patten if they would like to discuss their suitability to engage with the service. Please note, referral and consent documentation will be required prior to service commencement. We are excited to have Kat Patten, who will make a positive contribution to supporting student wellbeing at Beaufort Secondary College
