  • ‘Very excellent workshop.’

Brisbane 4 August, 2009
Riverside Reception Centre, New Farm was the venue for this workshop, facilitated by Queensland State Project Officer, Jane Taylor. Educators from seven schools as well as representatives from the Catholic Education Office attended the module that considered the sources, types and levels of data and information that exist for mental health and wellbeing within the school and community, and how this is measured in relation to the MindMatters Implementation Model and all school community groups.

Feedback:
