Black Dog Institute presentations for selected Year 8 Students
Prior to lockdown, Year 8 students were invited to be part of a 5-year Mental Health study being conducted by The Black Dog Institute. After a series of postponements, the program will commence on Thursday December 2. If you did not enrol in the program earlier in the year and would now like to take the opportunity for your son or daughter to do so, or would like to find out more about the study, please refer to the links below for further information.
Final opportunity to be part of the study

Year Assemblies scheduled for next week will involve the release of the student information videos and PDHPE lessons in Week 9 will provide follow up regarding decision making and safe behaviours relating to what has become a significant issue over the past couple of years.
As usual, thank you to all parents and careers for your ongoing support as we enter the final few weeks of the year.
