Wellbeing

At our school, student wellbeing and learning go hand in hand. We want every student to feel safe, included and ready to learn. Whether your child needs help with their mental, emotional, social or physical wellbeing, we are here to help them thrive at school and in daily life.

How we support student wellbeing

Supporting each student’s mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing is part of everyday school life.

We do this through:

• teachers who help students feel welcome and included
• access to school counsellors, school psychologists and specialist staff
• programs that support health, social skills, attendance and positive behaviour
• help for students who are new
• clear expectations for behaviour and respectful relationships
• staff who get to know each child and work closely with families
• developing health care plans for students
• developing wellbeing plans

• student mentoring and peer support

• whole school and targeted programs depending on student needs

• collaboration with community support programs

• connecting families to external support services
• open communication about wellbeing and support
• collaboration with partner primary schools for year 6-7 transition programs.

The wellbeing team

Every student has access to one-on-one wellbeing support through the wellbeing team, and this can include regular check-ins with Year Advisers, Head Teacher Wellbeing, Student Mentors, LGBTIQ+ Advisers, Girls Adviser, Boys Adviser, Careers Adviser, Student Support Officer and the School Counsellors. Our wellbeing staff are listed on our staff page.

A teacher may recommend the confidential services provided by our Student Support Office or School Counsellors by referring a student to the school’s wellbeing team. As a parent or carer, you may also refer your child directly to one of these services. Students can also self-refer to the services

The Student Support Officer can support students who are:

• worrying about school work

• having problems with friends

• getting in trouble at school

• feeling down.

The school counselling service can:

• support students who are worrying about school work, friends, getting in trouble at school or feeling down

• help parents and carers make decisions about your child’s education

• assess a student’s learning and behaviour

• help teachers and students identify and address disabilities that may affect learning

• liaise with other agencies regarding student wellbeing.
