Karen information session
It was an absolute pleasure to host a wonderful
group of Karen young people at headspace
Bendigo recently. Thank you to Christina and Ku
Htee from the BCHS Settlement Services team for
introducing the young people to headspace
services and for supporting our staff and volunteers
to learn more about the Karen culture. We look
forward to having you all back in the future.
R U OK? Day
We were in the Macedon Ranges for R U
OK? Day this year to spend time with year 8
students and staff from Sacred Heart
College, Braemar College and Gisborne
Secondary College. We kicked off the day
with useful tips on how to start meaningful
conversations and provided an overview of
our services, then the students got to enjoy
a sausage sizzle, petting zoo, lawn
activities, photo comp and our Chill Zone!
Wear It Purple
On August 29 we celebrated
our LGBTIQA+ young people
for Wear It Purple Day. A day
to promote safe, inclusive
and accepting environments,
this year’s theme was ‘Bold
Voices, Bright Futures.’
We caught up with some of
the team from Anglicare at
Little Shish, and big shout
out to Little Shish for the
purple coffee cups and
being so inclusive.
