Wellbeing is a key strategic priority for us and is seamlessly embedded into all aspects of school life. With the belief that the whole child is the whole point, our students are inspired and encouraged to believe in themselves and become self-directed lifelong learners. We support them to succeed and flourish as well rounded and contributing members of society.
A scaffolded and cohesive wellbeing framework helps us provide holistic support to our community. By incorporating positive, experiential and interactive methods in our pedagogy, our students, teachers and parents have been equipped with the skills and knowledge needed to prioritise and address wellbeing in all spheres of life.
