Hello Everyone,

Welcome to Term 3!

Term 3 in the Mental Health & Wellbeing space is starting off with an exciting opportunity as we welcome the NED Incursion to St Catherine’s. NED's Resiliency Ride, is a character education program that centres around three important messages that have lifelong relevance: Never give up, Encourage others and Do your best. During the assembly, students will learn about the importance of these three life skills while also enjoying storytelling, magic, humour and yo-yo tricks. Following on from the incursion there will be an opportunity for students to purchase a yo-yo through CDF pay.  Please note that there is no expectation that students need to purchase a yo-yo, it is optional and is not a school fundraising initiative. Our hope is that students not only enjoy themselves, but also engage in meaningful learning about resilience, which is an integral part of wellbeing!

As with all whole school events, the organisation of NED requires many moving parts and careful coordination. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to everyone involved in making it a success!

Warm Regards,

Jasmine Bentley

Mental Health & Wellbeing Leader
