Peer Power – Student Gatekeeper Training Programme
Peers play an important role in identifying at-risk counterparts for early support and intervention. In this connection, our school has joined the “Peer Power – Student Gatekeeper Training Programme” co-organised by the Education Bureau and Baptist Oi Kwan Social Service. Counselling Prefects of our school were nominated as “peer leaders” to receive a series of school-based joint-school training. On 8 October and 17 December 2022, they participated in workshops to learn to maintain mental well-being, understand common mental illnesses, and acquire practical skills to care for peers in distress.
