This newsletter I am providing a resource for parents and children that was designed to help children and adolescents who are experiencing difficulties with anxiety, depression and related issues. The momentum hub website was designed. Parents, family members and Teachers are often the first to notice mental health problems in young people and it can be hard to know where to turn for help. The program is free in Australia, accessible on a computer or tablet and is completed by the young person at their own pace. The website provides advice and resources for parents and carers, and for adolescents the program has different tools that will assist adolescents to:

• Keep track of their feelings
• Learn new skills for coping with difficult feelings an situations
• Takle anxiety and unhappiness step by step
• Calm mind and body
• Find more helpful ways of thinking

The website is momentumhub.org.au .

Students completed CoGat testing on Wednesday 14^th May in the Veritas Centre. Miss Blackwell provided information regarding the testing via the last newsletter and also through Compass. If parents have any queries regarding CoGat testing please contact Miss Blackwell.   Year 7 have been participating in a variety of sports at Nobby’s beach for Friday afternoon sport and have been enjoying themselves. Photos were posted on our socials last week. With the cooler weather upon us I am seeking parental support to ensure that students are dressed in correct full school uniform each and every day. Wearing our uniform well and correctly is something that our school is proud of and I congratulate all students who have been doing so.
