Student Wellbeing
Welcome to your student wellbeing website!
This site includes information on helping yourself during difficult times and where to go for help. There are resources on the 5 ways to wellbeing, information about upcoming workshops, the counselling team, and more.
“It’s ok to not always be ok but there are people to help and don't be scared to ask” (Year 7 student, 2022)
Activity: Yr10 L4L
Mindset matter and using the 5 ways to wellbeing can help you consider what every day activities can benefit your wellbeing, in addition to finding new things you might enjoy.
Why is student wellbeing important?
How does it impact our learning in school?
What suport is available in school if someone is struggling with their wellbeing?
How do you feel about being back at school?
For many students, returning to school after a long holiday can stir up a whirlwind of emotions. Whether you're excited to reconnect with friends, or nervous about entering your exam year, it's normal to feel a range of feelings as a new school year begins.
Tune in to your emotions and let us know how you're feeling via this questionnaire.
Update (21 August 2024): The questionnaire is now closed - thank you!
