Newsletter Week 7 Term Two
Reporoa College 14th June 2021

Year 12 Workshop
On Thurs 24th June all Year 12 students will take part in the Sophie Elliot
Foundation Loves-Me- Not one day workshop. This is a ‘whole-school approach’
to prevent abusive behaviour in relationships, facilitated by police, teachers and
counsellors. It is based on a student inquiry learning process, where students take
action (personal action, effective bystander action and community action) to prevent
harm from relationship abuse. Loves-Me-Not is designed for Year 12 students as the
appropriate age to discuss relationship abuse and to start to take action for change.
Nigel Latta explains how Loves-Me-Not teaches senior secondary school students
about healthy relationships. The video can be accessed on YouTube
at: https://youtu.be/c-gt7QG7GEc and we welcome parents to watch it.
Year 12 students will come to school as normal but have the option to dress in mufti.
They will also be offered Subway at lunchtime, courtesy of the college. This really is
an awesome course and we look forward to taking the students through the day.
