On Wednesday 5 August 2020 all of our female students were involved in a PPEP Talk at GHS. This stand for Periods, Pain, Endometriosis Program. It was a free health and well-being education program for students. The PPEP Talk is an initiative of the Pelvic Pain Foundation of Australia, funded jointly by the SA Department of Education, SA Health, and the Federal Department of Health.

The program included:

• A 1 hour positive, fun, educational and interactive program discussing pain, periods and endometriosis
• An opportunity for individual girls to discuss their personal pain circumstances with a medically trained educator following the presentation
• A guide to further resources, information and services for girls and their families to use if pain is distressing
