Its okay not to be okay this R U OK day, but use it as a chance to connect with someone you trust.
If you're feeling nervous or unsure about checking in with your friends R U OK has created 4 easy steps that you can follow.
1 - Ask how are you travelling? Or "You don't seem like yourself lately..."
2 - Listen with an open mind.
3 - Ask if they have managed this in the past, offer what you do when you feel low or connect to a new service.
4 - Touch base in a few days, or a week with care and concern.

If you want more info about supporting friends or family through a hard time, or having a conversation, or different services explore their website:

Did you know? 'joyerdong' is a Jaithmathang word for ice . . ⁠
Here at Outdoor School, we actively seek ways to acknowledge our local Indigenous people and to educate students around the history of Australia. One way we do this is sharing words from the local language; on signage and in our 'word of the week'. ⁠ . . ⁠
Do you know your local language?

Wednesday 4th of June is World Environment Day
We are fortunate to spend most of our time up in the beautiful Alpine environment. This year we're called to ♻️ to help keep not only the Alpine environment pristine, but your local paradise from bushland to river or beaches.
An easy step to minimise single use plastic going in the bins is to find a reusable water bottle or keep cup to use. Reusing containers to cover food, rather than plastic wrap is another easy place to start.
