Year 9 Stars Activity Day(Reflection)

 The STARS Mentoring Program is a classroom-based, peer-to-peer mentoring program that engages and supports students to make positive life choices and build healthy relationships. STARS provides students with the opportunity to discover themselves and build upon their skill set through our three core elements of self-awareness, healthy decision-making and MentorLife, which means to always invest in someone and always have someone investing in you. 

STARS mentors receive training and mentoring from their program coordinator, then they, in turn, are paired with no more than four mentees where they lead activities and opportunities for discussion. Through the program, students can strengthen their leadership abilities, discover and practice positive social and emotional skills around mental health, healthy relationships and decision-making, gain confidence and feel valued.


This day is significant for year 9's and all the stars mentors leaders in the school. This event allowed them to show their leadership and present themselves, and there year 9 groups in different activities. This event started at 9 am at the school ground. Year 9's were divided into different house groups, and they wore their house colours because they all were representatives of there groups. They look wonderful in there house colours. All students participated very well and enthusiastically in all activities. The event finished with dance performances of all house groups.
