Coming Up -Yr 7&8 Peers Study

PEERS study coming to NHS

Researchers from Murdoch Children's Research Institute will be visiting us and testing a new app that has been created for measuring social skill development in children. Our school appreciates the need for the PEERS app and are excited to assist in the testing process.   

The PEERS app is fun to play and students will receive a certificate for participating. There are also some brief questionnaires online for parents/guardians to complete.
