your school community. For this reason, we will organise a time to discuss this further and
identify ways we can ensure you and your team are supported in this process. It is important
that attendance is voluntary and that all attendees are encouraged to consider their own
wellbeing in attending this workshop and engaging with the content that will involve in depth
