PEER EDUCATORS

S6 pupils Chloe Wishart, Azhar Khan and Mark Coletta recently completed their Peer Education qualification.   They delivered a wide range of health related workshops to S1 pupils and discussed important issues such as positive self-image, mental health and good communication and team work techniques.   The young people said they enjoyed learning something new from people nearer their own age as they could relate to them more easily.   Linda McGurk, Partnership Officer who delivered the training said “The Peer Educators were very well organised in their delivery of the sessions and have learned new skills and experiences which I’m sure will be of great benefit to them in the nearfuture”.
