Year 10 Peer Support Training

Year 10 Peer Support Training

This term, Year 10 students took part in an exciting Peer Support Training program designed to equip them with leadership skills and strategies to support our Year 7 students in the College community.

The training focused on fostering empathy, communication, and teamwork, enabling students to take on the vital role of guiding and mentoring their younger peers. Through activities and engaging discussions, participants developed skills in active listening, problem-solving, and conflict resolution.

The Peer Support initiative plays a crucial role in promoting a sense of belonging and connection at St Ursula’s. By giving students the opportunity to step up as leaders, the program helps create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all.

A special thank you to Miss Murray, Ms Olsen and Ms Quail who guided and trained the students throughout this process. Their expertise, encouragement, and commitment to student growth have been invaluable in making this program a success.

As our trained Year 10 students prepare to take on their responsibilities in the coming months, they will undoubtedly have a lasting impact on their younger peers, fostering friendships, resilience, and school spirit. Well done to all involved in this fantastic program!
