October marks Mental Health Month, a national event observed across Australia to raise awareness and promote the importance of mental wellbeing. It’s a chance for us to actively promote our students’ wellbeing and continue to strengthen our efforts in building a supportive school environment.
In Week 2 of Term 4 (Monday 13 – Friday 17 October), we will be running ‘Wellbeing Week.’ The focus of this week is to promote positive mental health and wellbeing by running opt-in activities for students during break times. These will include dance and yoga classes, smoothie blender bikes, mindful nature walks, fitness sessions, art activities, gardening, a fundraising bake sale and much more!
It’s going to be a great week and one that we hope will educate the student community about proactive ways they can look after their wellbeing.
