Tomorrow Man/Woman

26 May 2023

Dear Parents/Guardians,

As part of our social and emotional programme at Boyup Brook District High School, each year the Year 9/10 students get the opportunity to engage in Tomorrow Man and Tomorrow Woman sessions.  These sessions engage the students in valuable conversations about their mental health and wellbeing and are always highly valued by the students and provide an amazing opportunity to bond with other students across Year 9 and 10.  All sessions are currently provided FREE to the students thanks to the WA Ed Dept. Mental Health in Schools Grants.

A teacher will be available for student support during each session should it be needed.

On Wednesday May 31, Tomorrow Man/Tomorrow Woman will be conducting the following two-hour sessions with our students.   

MALE YR 9/10 STUDENTS

Tomorrow Man Module: Breaking the Man Code

Overview: students will explore the impact of rigid masculine gender stereotypes and expectations. Learn a variety of tools and skills to improve the state of man, build stronger connections between one another, their peers and those they care about.

 

FEMALE YR 9/10 STUDENTS

Tomorrow Woman Module: Her Code

Overview:  students will be given the opportunity to express their authentic selves beyond the room, free from the limitations of society, peer expectations + stereotypes thus empowering participants to author their own version of womanhood. 

If you DO NOT wish for your son/daughter to attend the session on Tuesday, please contact the school.

Guitar Tutoring

19 May 2023

Dear Parents/Guardians,

As you will be aware, Chris Baker has unfortunately left us to pursue his music business in his very own music studio. Therefore, we have had to cease the guitar tutoring that Chris was doing with your child/ren. I am in the process of working with Instrumental Music Services (IMS), who employ our instrumental music teachers, to find a replacement for Chris. As soon as we have someone lined up, we will re-commence the tutoring program. 

If you have any questions regarding this, please do not hesitate to contact me at the school. 

Kind regards,
