πβ Today was R U Ok? Day βπ Sometimes all it takes is to ask someone 'R U Ok?'

We also asked our students a range of questions where they could add to the graffiti walls and remind each other of who we can turn to if we ever need some help. What a beautiful community to be a part of β¨

Our schools are cracking the reading code
