The school year kicked off with a bang as our newest Year 9 students dove into the Peer Support programme. The Peer Support programme, an initiative designed to help students transition to Glendowie College with confidence, is led by a group of specially selected Year 12 and 13 students. We know that the jump to college can feel overwhelming, so the programme is designed to provide the Year 9 students with skills that allow them to find their feet, build genuine friendships and navigate their new environment with total confidence. The goal is simple. We aim to make sure every new student feels like they belong at Glendowie College from day one.

Over the course of ten weeks, our student leaders will run weekly sessions that focus on a range of topics that will prove to be useful in the Year 9s adjustment to college life.
