On Friday 11th October, several of the Upper 4th and Lower 5th girls met with Mrs Hargraves for the second Pupil Wellbeing Committee meeting. Our Thirds and Lower 4th met with Mrs Waites and the Upper 5th and Sixth Form met with Mrs Coetzee. The committees have discussed valuing every member of the school, developing personal resilience, healthy habits and celebrating girls’ contributions to the wider life of the school. At this meeting, the girls browsed books from the library Wellbeing collection, whilst the older girls discussed feedback from the Resilience Workshop, the transition from Lower 4th to Upper 5th and anything else causing them minor anxiety. The girls, in the meeting, were also given their new Wellbeing Champion badges! Pupil Wellbeing Committees will be meeting again in November. Pupils who are interested in Wellbeing will have a chance to join the committees as their form’s new representatives after Christmas.
