St Catherine’s students, staff and families came together over several fantastic activities for Mental Health Week. Arts and craft activities centred around self-care, creating sensory tools and the power of creativity. Lots of memories were captured in the library photobooth. R U OK? Day was marked with Cup of Care, welcoming parents and siblings to grab a coffee and a treat with staff and students. Thank you to the wonderful parents who joined staff the day before to decorate cupcakes beautifully! 

Our face-painting student volunteers were trained by a professional face-painter and did some amazing work on R U OK? Day at lunch. Finally, our hot-chocolate chat and sip was very popular. As our campus grows, we look forward to many more opportunities to connect with our community and build a culture of kindness, care, and support.
