To what extent do Young People enjoy good health

The syllabus requires you to analyse TWO of the following health issues for young people:

• mental health problems and illnesses
• body image
• alcohol consumption
• violence
• road safety
• sexual health
• emerging health issues; for example, gambling, cyberbullying, party crashes or drink spiking.


In class you completed a summary of ONE concern, which you all received the class summaries in a booklet.
Here is the PowerPoint and information sheet from the concern I covered; Mental Health.

No School No Play

Did you recognise anyone?

No School, No Play initiative is a program run through schools with the support of Cricket Australia. It aims at increasing physical activity (with cricket sessions) whilst building cultural awareness for young ATSI individuals (through Aboriginal art clinics & programs). As we learnt on Friday, Young ATSI people tend to feel a disconnect from their culture, so this program addresses that, whilst being subsidised by the government and run for FREE through school (SRHS is in a low SES area).
