Students develop values and skills such as empathy, listening, resilience, a big boost to their self-confidence and self-esteem, and a willingness to bounce back and have a go when faced with challenges.

It fits right into our whole-school approach to student wellbeing. The students get a chance to take control and it’s student-centered. And it allows our school leaders to build their capacity.

The Peer Support Program helped me adapt to high school. I knew I could always go to [my Peer Leaders] when I had a problem or I was struggling with studying or being organised.
