Delighted to announce that DGS are now ready to submit their first Amber Flag application, having completed the three tasks required.
We held our Mental Health Awareness Day on Monday. This was facilitated by Nikki and Andrea from Butterfly who delivered workshops throughout the day to our students.
The discussion focused on areas including Mental Health, Body Confidence, Relationships, Social Media and Peer Pressure.
Our new Amber Flag Noticeboard, recently installed in the Day Canteen, promotes steps towards Positive Mental Health and offers tips and strategies that can be adopted by our students.
The ‘Hats On for Mental Health’ fundraiser on Wednesday was a huge success and generated €754 in aid of Pieta House.
