Dear families and students
Term 3, Week 8 students are feeling the weight of assessments, exam preparation and pressures of daily life, we are ensuring all students can access the right support through the wellbeing team and counselling team.
As a general reminder the PaLMs- Pastoral and Learning Mentors teacher is the first port of call, when families need to contact the College or students need to speak to a teacher, please ensure you contact the PaLM as they are the core teachers who sees your child every day.
In addition to supporting conversations Reachout https://au.reachout.com/ has some fabulous resources that can help guide and support those stressors. Particularly focussed on Mental health, problem solving, exam stress, work, and study.
Lastly, I would like to highlight some upcoming event happening across the school in the next week or so
