WGHS and WBHS Wellbeing Hui

Jennifer Corlet and Emily Hawker —

WGHS and WBHS gathered students' voices regarding the current needs of our youth.

Mrs. Corlet and Mrs. Hawker took a team of students from our wellbeing committee to WBHS to meet with a team from their wellbeing committee, as well as the WBHS Guidance Counsellor Janice. The day's agenda was to gather student viewpoints on the current needs of youth in our schools and community. Students shared ideas on the current mental health challenges youth are facing, what support was needed, how youth can support youth, how parents can support youth, and ideas for health promotion. From this information, an action plan will be created. It is always exciting for the students to get together and collaborate on ideas.
