2 August 2013 - Bellingen High School

Youth Advisory Group (YAG)
Several Bellingen High
School
students
participated in the
Australian Government's
Youth Advisory Group (YAG)
on Cybersafety. YAG
members have provided
unique and valuable insights
into cybersafety issues
affecting children and
teenagers and the ways
these issues can be
addressed from the
perspective of young people
themselves. Congratulations and thank you to Jasmin, Kristen, Jeremy, Katelyn and
Tegan (absent from photo) for your commitment to this important program.
Parents who wish to join this advisory group can call 1800 254 907 or email

WorldVision 40 Hour Famine
So far Bellingen High School has 21 socially conscious students who have signed up to do
the 40 Hour Famine. This year the money raised goes directly to children in Malawi
where 50% of the children do not get enough food for normal growth.
The students have already raised close to $1000 which is a tremendous effort. If you
google 40 Hour Famine you can go to the Bellingen High School group and sponsor one of
the Bellingen High School students.
The Famine is on 16 th to 18 th August so there is plenty of time for more students to help
this worthy cause.
