Although R U OK? Day was officially yesterday, today our College community continued the conversation, reminding students that checking in with one another matters any day. At today’s Assembly, Student Wellbeing Prefect Michael B spoke about looking out for others, recognising when someone may not be themselves and having the confidence to ask, “Are you OK?” This message continued in Pastoral Care Lessons, with students exploring the importance of noticing, asking, listening without judgement and seeking the support of a trusted adult when needed. Our students also brightened the campus with fun socks, representing the feelings and emotions we all carry which, just like our socks, can often be covered up and hidden from view. They remind us that we don’t always know what someone else may be going through. At St Patrick’s, wellbeing is part of Shining the St Patrick’s Way. Sometimes, a simple conversation can make a very real difference. 💙🖤💛
