At our school, student wellbeing and learning go hand in hand. We want every student to feel safe, included, and supported. Whether your child needs help with mental, emotional, social, or physical wellbeing, we are here to help them succeed. We focus on wellbeing as key to engagement and success, fostering a respectful environment where all feel valued. Through strong relationships and support, we empower students to thrive.

help for students who are new or changing year levels
clear expectations for behaviour and respectful relationships
staff who get to know each child and work closely with families

open communication about wellbeing and support.
