From Conversations to Action: National Child Protection Week at Saints.💙
Throughout National Child Protection Week, staff across all Saints College campuses, including BlendED, came together to recognise our shared responsibility in creating safe, supportive, and inclusive environments for children and young people.
This year`s theme, Turning Conversations into Action, encouraged meaningful reflection and discussion on how we can all contribute to the safety and wellbeing of our young people. Across the week, staff participated in a range of activities, including child safety discussions, circle time, morning tea, quizzes, and opportunities to connect and reflect on the importance of child safety in our everyday work.
The week also provided an opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate the dedication of staff across all campuses. Through various appreciation activities, we recognised the commitment, care, and professionalism shown each day in supporting and safeguarding the young people in our community.
National Child Protection Week served as a valuable reminder that keeping children safe is everyone`s responsibility and that meaningful conversations can lead to positive action.

Research from @ruokanyday shows that 88% of people appreciate being asked if they’re OK.
Today, at our Central Office, staff picked conversation starters throughout the day to encourage meaningful check-ins and connection.
One simple prompt can start an important conversation. 💛
R U OK? Day reminds us that a conversation could make a real difference.

Last Friday at our Geelong campus, our young people and staff came together to celebrate Wear It Purple Day. 💜
Our school is a place of belonging, acceptance, and support. Young people who come to a Saints College campus are welcomed as they are, and are made to feel safe, valued, and proud of who they are. ✨
Unconditional positive regard is one of the driving values we uphold at Saints and Wear It Purple Day is an important reminder of the impact that acceptance and inclusion can have on a young person’s wellbeing.
Our staff arrived dressed in their purple best, and our young people gathered in the community room during lunch to share treats, enjoy a meal together, and connect through conversation.
Wear It Purple Day was a reminder that it is our collective responsibility to promote safe and inclusive learning spaces where young people feel seen, supported, celebrated, and never alone. 💜

Our young people from BlendEd in Ballarat recently welcomed more than 100 guests to its second annual Creative Showcase! 🎨✨
With more than 80 art submissions on display, a hip-hop dance performance, young people leading the Acknowledgement of Country and Working Agreements, and a community presentation from Over the Rainbow, the showcase highlighted the many ways young people are contributing to and shaping our community.
It was inspiring to see such strong participation from our young people and the wider community coming together to celebrate their achievements. 💙

🔨 Our young people at our Bungaree campus are turning ideas into reality through hands-on woodwork projects.
With the guidance and dedication of their woodwork teacher, Anton, our young people have transformed an underutilised shed into a thriving woodwork classroom where learning comes to life through real-world projects.
Check out their current project! Custom coffee tables for the common room space. ☕
Through woodwork, our young people are developing:
🪵 Practical skills
💡 Problem-solving abilities
📏 Design and planning skills
🤝 Teamwork and communication
🌟 Confidence and resilience
It`s been incredible to see our young people take such pride in their work, collaborate on projects, and watch their ideas become finished products that will be enjoyed by the wider school community.
A special thank you to Anton for his commitment to creating this opportunity and to our young people for their enthusiasm, effort, and craftsmanship.

Bullying isn`t just a ‘part of growing up’.
It can be a repeated attempt to gain control, power, or dominance over another person. Recognising these patterns is important. Within our trauma-informed practice at Saints, we understand that bullying can be experienced as trauma for some young people, which is why early intervention and support are so important.
This week is Bullying No Way Week. In line with this year`s theme, Small Acts. Big Impact., we are sharing the message that creating safe and respectful learning communities starts with everyday actions. A check-in, a conversation, speaking up, or offering support can make a meaningful difference in a young person`s life.
This Bullying No Way Week, and every week, we stand with those who have experienced bullying and reaffirm our commitment to fostering safe, inclusive, and respectful learning environments for our young people and community.

We are absolutely delighted to announce that Ruby, who is completing her VCE VM through our online campus, BlendED by Saints College, has been recognised with the prestigious VCE Leadership Award. 🏅 As one of just eight young people recognised statewide, this is a remarkable achievement. 👏
The VCE Leadership Award is a prestigious honour that recognises young people who demonstrate exceptional leadership, create positive change and make a meaningful contribution to their communities. Through initiatives such as her weekly Ruby Tuesday Circle Time, her advocacy for inclusive and alternative education pathways, and her willingness to share her lived experience to support others, Ruby has consistently demonstrated the authentic leadership, courage and commitment this award celebrates.
Fittingly, on International Youth Day, we celebrate not only this remarkable recognition but also the contribution young people like Ruby make to their communities every day. Next month, Ruby will travel from Echuca to Melbourne`s Treasury Hall to attend the VCE Leadership Awards ceremony, where one of the eight recipients will be announced as the overall VCE Leadership Award winner.
We are incredibly proud of Ruby and look forward to sharing more about this special occasion. We also look forward to celebrating her nomination at the Campaspe Youth Awards later this week. 🎉
Congratulations, Ruby. Your courage, leadership and commitment inspire us all. 💙

🎶🍗FOUR BIG WEEKS. ONE EPIC FINALE. 🎯🎉
Last Friday, our North Melbourne campus wrapped up the “Every Young Person, Every Day” school-wide program with Saints Fest!
Our young people enjoyed a day full of music, food, games, prizes, animals and celebrations. The energy was high, the community spirit was strong, and yes... some lucky young people got the chance to dunk the principal! 💦
What a fantastic way to celebrate four weeks of engagement, attendance and school spirit.
