Promoting Healthy Choices During Vaping Awareness Week
Vaping Awareness Week recently took place in our school as part of an initiative to educate students about the health risks and realities of e-cigarette use. Particular emphasis was placed on the effects that vaping-related chemicals can have on the developing teenage brain and lungs.
Throughout the week, students engaged in a range of educational activities, including morning announcements, informative visual displays, dedicated SPHE lessons featuring student-led discussions, educational videos, and a poster competition.
The aim of the initiative was to empower students with accurate information, enabling them to make informed and healthy choices. Guidance on positive stress-management strategies was also shared, along with information on support services available to those seeking help to quit vaping.
Congratulations to Sophie Hennessy (3rd Year), who was announced as the winner of the Vaping Awareness Week poster competition.
We would like to thank all staff and students who contributed to the success of this important health awareness initiative.
