Wellbeing Report – March 2026

Wellbeing in action – building Better People, Better Learners

Over the past weeks, the Wellbeing Team has been actively engaged in a range of initiatives designed to support our students’ growth, connection and sense of purpose within the school community. Each of these experiences reflects our ongoing commitment to forming better people, better learners through meaningful engagement, service and personal development.

Year 7 and Year 10 Peer Support Camp

Our Year 7 and Year 10 Peer Support Camp was a highlight, providing students with valuable opportunities to build relationships, develop leadership skills and strengthen their sense of belonging. The camp played a significant role in fostering connection across year groups, with our Year 10 students demonstrating maturity and care in their roles as mentors.

Colour Run

In celebration of Harmony Day, the Secondary Colour Run brought students together in a vibrant and inclusive event that promoted wellbeing, cultural appreciation and community spirit. Importantly, the initiative also supported our commitment to service, raising funds for the St Nicholas Mission and reinforcing the value of contributing to the wider global community. See our student-written article about the colour run.

Service

Our students have also continued to engage in acts of service through the Mother Maria of Paris Food Charity, demonstrating compassion and social responsibility by supporting those in need. These experiences are vital in helping students develop empathy and an understanding of their role in serving others.

Life skills

As part of our Pastoral program, Year 7 students participated in visits from the Police, focusing on important topics such as safety, decision-making and respectful behaviour. These sessions provide practical guidance and reinforce the importance of making positive choices.

In the senior years, Year 11 students have been actively involved in Study Skills sessions during Pastoral time, equipping them with practical strategies to manage their learning and prepare for the academic demands ahead.

Across all year groups, the Pastoral program continues to focus on Respectful Relationships, guiding students in developing empathy, communication skills and an understanding of how to build and maintain positive relationships.

Recognition

We also recently held a Secondary School Assembly, where students were recognised for their Application and Effort. These awards celebrate those who consistently demonstrate a positive attitude towards their learning, reinforcing the behaviours and dispositions we value as a school.

Mentor evening

Finally, our Meet the Mentor Evening provided a valuable opportunity for families to connect with Homeroom Mentors, strengthening the partnership between school and home. These relationships are essential in supporting each student’s wellbeing and academic journey.

Together, these initiatives highlight the strength of our wellbeing framework and our shared commitment to nurturing students who are not only successful learners, but also compassionate, respectful and socially responsible individuals.
