What can we do?!

Checking in - These are the action plans that we have created for our project focusing on preventing teen suicide in our community.

“It’s okay to not be okay, but it’s not okay not to talk about it!”

Steps needed to achieve the goal.	What will help us achieve this goal?(Enablers)	Possible barriers and how they could be overcome.	Who is responsible for this step?	Date this step will be achieved by.
Have a meeting with Mr Rogers to book an assembly slot to share the numbers and information about lifeline.	Miss Aitken letting me out of class to see Mr Rogers. Mr Rogers being in his office.	Mr Rogers says no to our group presenting this information - we could overcome this by asking the Deans if we can present in Dean’s assemblies. Mr Rogers being away - we could overcome this by emailing him to book a slot.	Kelsey, Alby and Scott.	1/11/17
Create a demonstration - like what they did in town with the shoes for the teens who have taken their lives in town.	Knowing the numbers. Getting the shoes. Finding the time and place to have this demonstration. Brainstorming with teachers where would be the best place for this.	Wet weather - having a postponement day	Kelsey & Alby	11/11/17
Make some pamphlets and share these in the community to raise awareness of the demonstration that we are doing.	Creative excellence Having the facts and information correct Printing budget Distributing these in our community	Not enough money to print - could email or create a website. People won’t help distribute - put in a common place where access is not an issue.	Scott and Alby	20/11/17
Create a “Share happiness day!”	Talking to Mr Rogers about having this day and what it entails. Have fun things to promote happiness around the school - candy, music, high fives etc.	Not enough money for things - have free things like music, high fives, hugs, smile station etc.	Kelsey, Alby and Scott	Before 10/12/17

All of the possible barriers have been sorted out and our action plans have been checked by our teachers! Look out Hornby, here we come! Let’s spread the happiness!!! Just like Coke did in the video below!
