Our school’s approach to pastoral care focuses on emotional safety, relationship-building, strength development, academic care and resilience, we create an environment where every student can thrive, regardless of their background or past experiences. Our commitment to trauma-sensitive, strength-based pastoral care ensures that we not only meet the emotional and psychological needs of our students but also empower them to reach their full potential.
Pastoral Care processes within the College seek to promote personal growth, confidence and pride through:
- Focused pastoral care programs.
- Opportunities to participate in volunteering and leadership within the College and the wider community.
- Acknowledgement of positive pastoral and academic achievements through house points, awards, assemblies and presentations.
Each student belongs to a Pastoral Group, led by a Pastoral Teacher, which meets daily for general administration, roll call and prayer. The weekly Pastoral Care lesson may consist of a College assembly or College activity (Community Day, SFX Day, Athletics Carnival, Cross Country). There are also extended sessions conducted under the leadership of the Pastoral Teacher, focusing on the pastoral care themes for that year’s group. These sessions may consist of input from a guest speaker, a video with follow-up discussion, a theatre performance or presentation, or a small group discussion within the Pastoral Group on issues of relevance.
