Year 9
The Chapel service this week was led by our Year 9 Middle Years Leaders, Katherine Woo, Amy Doan, Veronica Pan and Madeleine Girgis and Year 12 student Tiana Robinson. Tiana’s reflection on the Book of Esther offered a powerful reminder that courage does not mean we are never afraid — it means we choose to do what is right, even when it is hard. Esther did not stand alone. Her strength came from her character and the support around her, and that is what made her a leader others could trust. I encourage all our Year 9 students to reflect on this and strive to lead with courage and compassion.
Elephant Ed Workshop
As part of our student wellbeing program, Year 9 students took part in a consent and relationships workshop run by Elephant Ed on Thursday. Elephant Ed is a leading sexuality and relationships education provider to schools around Australia. Their workshops are evidence-based, age-appropriate and mapped to State and National curriculum guidelines.
During the workshop, Year 9 were supported to engage in discussions about the legalities surrounding consent, including the age of consent and what makes consent valid. Through critical analysis of how consent is portrayed in the media, they were encouraged to think deeply about the messages they receive and the importance of respecting personal boundaries. They were also provided with information about where and how to seek help if they ever need support.
