Wellbeing and Mental Health Resources at David Game College

The wellbeing of our students at the College is of paramount importance to us as healthy and focused students, with a positive outlook, make a huge difference to their general happiness and academic progress. We want all our students to be ambitious and adopt a resilient approach to challenges and setbacks, using them as a learning curve and experience they can reflect on and move forward. With this in mind, below is a list of courses and learning resources that can be easily accessed.
