Wellbeing Year 10

The Year 10 students have had a wonderful start to the year. They are now the leaders of the Junior Campus, and with this title comes great responsibility. It has been so amazing to see the Year 10 students step into this role with confidence. They are focused in class, wearing their uniforms with pride, and have already become such positive role models for the younger year groups.

I would like to congratulate the Year 10 students who are the Peer Support Leaders and Assistants for our new Year 7 students. The Leaders and Assistants are great mentors for the new members of our community. It has been fantastic to witness their commitment and dedication to the lessons that they provide each week. I have received many positive reports from Mr Leaves and the St Andrews College Staff about how the Year 10s conduct themselves during their Peer Support lessons. Well done everyone.

I would also like to applaud the students who participated as competitors in the Swimming Carnival and the students who represented the College at the PDSSSC Basketball Gala Day. 

There have also been a number of activities this term that the Year 10 SRC have initiated on the Junior Campus. The Valentine's Day photo frame and the google form notes were two amazing ways of marking this special occasion. These initiatives showcased the great teamwork and leadership skills of our students. The SRC and other members of the Year 10 cohort also did a wonderful job of celebrating Gratitude Week at the College by creating a beautiful ‘Thankful Tree’ which displayed hand written notes of all the things that our junior students are grateful for.

In addition to Dr Kennaugh and the College Leadership Team, Therese May, and the Year 10 classroom teachers, the table below shows the Learning Advisors that will be assisting me in supporting the Wellbeing of our Year 10 students:

I am very grateful and honoured to be continuing on with the Year 10 students this year, as their Leader of Wellbeing. I look forward to our meaningful Wellbeing lessons and seeing the students thrive, as they participate in the many opportunities and activities that are provided here at our College.
