Wellbeing Matters
Year 8 Wellbeing Day - Friday 17 March
On Friday 17 March, Year 8 students will be participating in Wellbeing Workshops in Sessions 1, 2 & 3. Session 4 will be Year 8 Sport as per usual. We have put together a dynamic program that will have the greatest impact on building our students' capacity to manage their social and emotional life, based on the most significant issues faced by our young people today. Workshops include:
Thinking Traps - Toolbox Education: identifying and managing the negative self-talk that can lead to an increase in personal stress. Toolbox Education
Let's Talk Body image - Butterfly Foundation: To increase media literacy and particularly around how body image is portrayed in social media. Support for Eating Disorders and Body Image Issues | Butterfly Foundation
