Supporting children and young people with distressing events

We understand that our education communities may be affected by the tragedy in New Zealand on Friday March 15, and our thoughts go out to everyone in Christchurch at this time. 

Some members of our communities will have watched the footage and may be impacted by the images. Others may need reassurance and to be supported to feel safe. For information on supporting young people please see:
