Pastoral – Are you OK Day
R U OK? Day – Friday 9 September
The College will be marking R U OK day. On this day the students will be engaged in a variety of activities across both Campuses. The theme will be helping our friends, classmates and family by having conversations.
The Gioia House leaders will also share some of the strategies that they use when they are not feeling ok and how they help their friends at the Del Monte assembly on Thursday.
The children are invited to wear a splash of yellow. Please note the students will still wear their normal school uniform with an added splash of yellow. Some ideas for a splash of colour are wearing yellow:
- shoelaces
- hair ribbons
- socks
- scrunchies
- head bands
- Hats
During R U OK? day the children will engage in age appropriate activities that incorporate ways to have an R U OK? conversation with their friends and families. The children will also continue to learn about how to be a good friend and how to utilise their support networks. Our Year 10 leaders will visit the campus and work with our students in the classrooms on the day.The R U OK day activities will complement the social and emotional learning that the children already engage in their pastoral, personal development and health lessons.
