Yeah, but srsly…
• If you need to talk to someone about life, the universe or anything, pop in to see us before school or at the breaks.
• Don’t leave it until the problem is massive! A little problem is easier to solve.
• If you’re worried about a friend, let someone know. A problem shared is a problem solved…
