Congratulations to our PBRS Points Winners and High achievers for Term 1:
School Refusal and Teenagers
Being the parent or carer of a teenager who refuses to go to school can be incredibly challenging, putting a strain on your relationship with them and on your family and home life.
You may be unsure about how to act in the best interests of your teen while at the same time offering them effective support, but there are many things you can do to manage the situation and maintain a positive relationship. It’s also important to acknowledge your own feelings and to prioritise your own mental wellbeing.
Here’s everything you need to know about school refusal, including its signs, causes and implications, as well as resources and strategies for managing it.
Do it for Dolly Day 2023
St Paul’s are taking part in 'Do It For Dolly Day' on Friday 12 May. Students are encouraged to wear Mufti, with a Blue theme and make a gold coin donation. Cupcakes will be available for sale as part of our Fundraising.
It is a day dedicated to bringing the College community together, spreading kindness and uniting in taking a stand against bullying. We have set up a Fundraising page for St Paul’s to help raise much-needed funds for Dolly's Dream and support their anti-bullying initiatives and programs that are helping to empower and educate our community about the power of kindness and bullying prevention.
Please support our donation page by clicking on this Fundraising Link.
