Brainstorm – Wired

On Thursday, 13th of June, Year 11 students attended an incursion presented by Brainstorm Productions called ‘Wired’. The play highlighted the causes of stress and its potential impact on young people related to school, friendships and everyday life. Students seemed highly engaged and demonstrated their understanding of the mental health issues covered during the incursion through active participation in follow up discussions. There was a particular emphasis on how to identify signs of stress, depression and anxiety and how to seek help. Below is a reminder for all students about how to access assistance.
