Peer support

Our aim is to provide support for new Year 7 students with a system that will continue throughout their school lives.

Year 10 students mentor Year 7 students in small groups. They help with the transition from primary to high school initially and then work together with the students in subsequent years.

The purpose of the Peer Support Program is to:

  • Foster self-confidence
  • Develop self-esteem
  • Practice decision making skills
  • Promote good communication
  • Establish a support network
  • Instil respect for others

Our Year 10 peer support leaders accompany Year 7 at their camp fostering school spirit and developing strong interpersonal relationships.
