As we move through a busy and exciting term, there have been many opportunities for students to connect, learn and celebrate across our school community.
Careers Week was a fantastic success, with a range of engaging lunchtime activities held across both the Junior and Senior Campuses. Students participated in interactive experiences designed to spark curiosity about future pathways, careers and opportunities beyond school. It was wonderful to see students enthusiastically exploring their interests, asking questions and engaging in conversations about their future aspirations.
Our Year 8 students also recently participated in the Toolbox Education workshop, Mental Movies. This engaging and practical session focused on helping students understand how thoughts can influence emotions and behaviours, while providing strategies to manage anxious thinking and build resilience. The workshop supported students in developing greater self-awareness and positive wellbeing strategies.
On 12 May, we proudly celebrated International Nurses Day, recognising the incredible contribution of our three school nurses and the important role they play in supporting the health, wellbeing and care of our students every day. Their compassion, professionalism and dedication are greatly valued across our school community, and we thank them for the support they provide to students, staff and families.
We also look forward to celebrating IDAHOBIT Day (International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Interphobia and Transphobia) later this month. This day is an important opportunity to celebrate diversity, promote inclusion and reinforce our commitment to ensuring every student feels safe, respected and valued for who they are. Students will have opportunities to engage in activities and conversations that encourage understanding, kindness and belonging within our school community.
