Headspace visit engages students

Khaleal Iboai with Headspace staff
29th Oct 2024

In recognition of Mental Health Month, Headspace Armidale visited Guyra Central School on Tuesday October 22nd, to engage with students and provide a delicious BBQ lunch. This meal was offered to all secondary students, as well as those in Year 6.
It allowed our students not only to enjoy a fantastic lunch, thanks to the team at Headspace Armidale, but also to converse with Headspace staff about the support available for young people and their families, along with information on how to access these resources.
Headspace centres and services are available throughout Australia, serving metropolitan, regional, and rural areas. They aim to support young people and their families in maintaining mental health and staying engaged in their communities. Headspace centres serve as a comprehensive resource for individuals aged 12 to 25 seeking assistance with mental health, physical health (including sexual health), substance use, or support for work and study. The services provided by Headspace are free, and referrals can be made by anyone, including self-referrals, family members, friends, service providers, and health professionals.
Guyra Central School extend our heartfelt gratitude to Headspace Armidale for visiting Guyra, engaging with our students, and providing such a wonderful lunch!
