IT'S WORK AND STUDY THURSDAY!

The headspace IPS Work & Study team whizzed down to the foreshore to hang out with the Community Engagement team to celebrate headspace Day last Friday!

We played some fun games, had some great conversations, ate some yummy pizza, and brushed up on some of our aiming skills and throwing strength (sorry, not sorry Konnor! 😂).

Konnor might be in danger of a headache, but you don't have to be when it comes to getting a job or seeking study opportunities. Find out more about how we can help, call us 📞 8641 4300 or come and visit us 🏠 16-20 Railway Parade

The headspace Work & Study team would like to welcome Denham as our new part-time Vocational peer support worker. He is stepping into the role alongside Konnor but don't worry we promise his jokes are a lot better.

Today we spent lunchtime with the staff and students at Port Augusta Secondary School. We shared a beautiful healthy lunch and talked about the importance of checking in with our friends, families and colleagues to ask R U OK? Not just today but any day. A simple question can show someone that there is support around them and that someone cares. Thank you for having us PASS😀

The IPS Work & Study team would like to congratulate Konnor on his new role as a Vocational Specialist. Konnor will be sharing his time between the role of Vocational Specialist and Vocational Peer Support Worker so that might mean you have to hear double the bad dad jokes.
