Waverley College will be hosting an event called “After the Bell” on 3 April 2019, from 7:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. at the Waverley College Gymnasium. This symposium is aimed towards parents of students in Years 8-10 to help them keep their children safe whilst partying
The event is organised through the effort of a combined schools initiative, after two unpleasant incidents happened in February, requiring police assistance at Waverley College.
The event aims to create a sense of awareness about the various social issues that the youth are facing today.
After identifying such issues, parents will be provided with necessary information and strategies to help them manage risky teenage behaviour and overall keep the young ones safe.
Through the event, parents are expected to be equipped with the necessary knowledge to guide their children in making good and rational decisions whenever they are away from home or school.
Combined Schools Initiative
A total of 13 local schools are involved in the After the Bell event. These schools include Ascham School, Brigidine College Randwick, Cranbrook, Emanuel, Kambala, Kincoppal, Moriah College, Reddam House, Rose Bay Secondary College, St Catherine’s School, St Clare’s College, St Vincent’s College and Waverley College.
All 13 schools are also part of a newly created group of educational leaders from schools in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, called the Eastern Suburbs School Leaders for Youth.
The management of all involved schools support and believe that collaborating ideas and resources are beneficial for the overall growth and safety of the community.
Upon the announcement of this After the Bell event, 400 tickets have already been sold. Ticket fee is at $ 10 per person, and all collected proceeds will be given to the Headspace in Bondi Junction.
