Semester 1 in the CSYMA Lounge has been busy but well worth it. We have been running the lounge activities, the implementation and inclusiveness of FUSE youth activities and the Conversation Cafe every Friday lunchtime. We have also been coordinating fundraising events and putting together different “themes of the week” all to help our students reflect on how lucky they are and to provide them with a space to explore their own faiths.
Students refer to the CSYMA Lounge as a very welcoming place with a great atmosphere where you can sit down and relax. It is a space that allows students to share their beliefs and a safe haven to talk about their faith in a very comfortable and homely environment with inclusive and relatable activities every lunchtime.
We would like to extend a big thank you to all the students who have helped in the lounge whether behind the counter serving or running an activity, it is really appreciated. The attitude of everyone involved in the lounge whether it's listening to each other when speaking or sharing, maintaining eye contact or even just taking a quick second to smile at one another really reflects our College theme of this year of ‘Compassion through us’.
