Wellbeing and Safety
Holiday periods can be rough for some people, we see an increase in the number of scams and the risk of drink spiking may increase with end of year parties and gatherings, and sadly lives are lost in instances of drownings.
​
If you experience any struggles, please know that Converge International Services are available during the holiday period. ​Scams! Never click on links from unknown sources AND if an offer from an unknown source is too good to be true don't even think twice about it!
​​
Check out the information and range of support available under the above Wellbeing & Safety menu. Further information about scams and drink spiking can be found on the Safety and Emergency Services page of CHS's Student Hub.
​
Important: Beach and Water Safety!
Australia’s beaches are a great place to keep cool on a hot day, however the strong currents of water that flow away from the shore line (these are called rip currents or rips) present danger. Only swim at beaches that have Life Guards on duty and always between the RED and YELLOW flags. ​The Beach Safe App can assist you to locate the nearest patrolled beach that have Life Guards on duty. Download the Beachsafe App here: https://beachsafe.org.au/apps
​​​
Beach Safety Reminders:
Only swim at a beach that is patrolled by Life Guards
Before you step onto the beach read the Safety signs, this will inform you of any warnings or dangers at the beach.
Only swim between the RED and YELLOW flags
Always follow the instructions of the Life Guards on duty
Never swim at night
Don’t dive into the water, the water may be shallow and you could be hurt
Don’t go swimming alone, go with a friend so that you can look after each other
Tell someone where you are going and what time you expect to return
