A Series of Important Lessons

With the holistic development and formation of each student being a key mission of the College, it is important to cover content that broaches significant issues facing adolescents, in addition to the day-to-day academic timetable.

As part of the Student Engagement program, the College regularly invites expert guest speakers to provide important lessons that cover serious topics beyond the curriculum. This semester featured several of these presentations for both students and their parents, including:

• Raising Teenage Boys by Powerhouse Programs

• Cultural Change and Societel Transformation by Collective Shout

• Drug and Alcohol Presentation by Paul Dillon from Drug and Alcohol Research and Training Australia

• Well-being and Leadership Workshop by Unleashing Personal Potential

• Prevent Alcohol and Risk-Related Trauma in Youth Workshop (P.A.R.T.Y) at Toowoomba Hospital

• Safe Partying by Red Frogs
