Hale Mates program
Hale Mates is a peer mentoring program for youth in our community aged between 11 and 17 years old.
Proudly supported by Telethon, the participants team up with a selection of Hale students (mentors) to learn new skills and embrace new experiences - fostering a strong sense of inclusion and mateship. It also focuses on recognising inner strength and developing resilience.
Past activities have included virtual reality, a visit to the Nova 93.7 radio station , cooking and baking, remote control car races, science experiments, tower building, learning to be a DJ, musical instruments and an end of year pool party.
A sibling aged between 11 and 17 years old is also welcome to attend.
Hale School host the program every fortnight on Monday afternoons between 4 and 5pm (during the school term).
