College Information & Events
25 June
Recently, Year 10 students at Damascus College took part in the Expect Respect presentation, held in the Damascus Events Centre and facilitated by Ballarat Community Health.
This valuable program engaged students through live theatre and an expert panel discussion, encouraging them to reflect on respectful, safe and equitable relationships. Key topics included consent, challenging gender stereotypes, help-seeking, and how to be an upstander within their community.
It was a powerful and thought-provoking experience. Our students showed great courage and maturity as they engaged with these complex but essential issues. Damascus College is proud to support our young people in developing the knowledge, empathy and confidence they need to navigate the world around them.
We thank Ballarat Community Health for their ongoing partnership, and our dedicated staff for supporting this important learning opportunity.
