Push-Up Challenge
THE PUSH-UP CHALLENGE 2023 is well underway and the staff team has already gone beyond their fundraising target of $1000. The challenge continues through until 23 June with participants completing 3144 push-ups. Tragically, this represents the number of people who died by suicide in Australia in 2021. Each day the number of push-ups is linked to a statistic or fact about mental health and we have been sharing our learning from this with the college through daily updates on the walk-through sub-way. The SRC team have also been rigorous with their push-ups and competitive spirit.
If you haven’t yet donated, you still have time!!! All funds raised will go towards mental health and crisis support services helping to break stigmas and provide hope to those struggling with their mental health.
Help us push for better mental health.
