After The Bell 2022

After The Bell is an event run by ESSLY (Eastern Suburbs School Leaders for Youth) and is a combined schools initiative focusing on the safekeeping and wellbeing of our youth. This event is a collaborative approach to share strategies and amplify support of adolescent wellbeing through school leaders, staff and parents coming together. 

Wellbeing leaders from schools in the Eastern Suburbs meet each term as we believe there is enormous value and under utilised potential in schools collaborating, sharing ideas and resources to support our community.

Our key focus is working together to raise awareness and provide parents with strategies to help them manage teenage behaviour.

We believe that it is essential for parents to see that our schools stand united, with shared values on social issues.

We have come together to organise an event (see flyer below), which Waverley College is hosting for parents on Thursday 13 October 2022. Guest speakers include:

• Yasmin London, an ex-World Champion athlete, Police Officer and now Director of ySafe, Australia’s largest provider of online safety education. Yasmin has built a team that empowers over 1 million young Australians and their communities to take control of their digital journey.
• Student voice from a range of schools to share their experience of returning to school after lockdown and remote learning.
• Panelists with staff from a range of schools to discuss the issues of:
  • School refusal
  • Anxiety
  • Sleep
  • Disordered eating
  • Self harm.

Tickets are $10.00 and can be purchased here, with proceeds going to Headspace.
