Spiritual Awareness

We are an Anglican school that nurtures Christian values within a diverse and tolerant community, welcoming people of all faiths and traditions. Through our Worship services and Religious Education Program, we encourage students to explore the spiritual dimensions of their lives and to understand and respect values and beliefs different to their own. Our School Chaplains are Rev Alison Andrew (Senior and Middle School Chaplain) and Mrs Natalie Rice (Junior School Chaplain).

Counselling

We provide staff who are specialists trained in clinical, educational and developmental psychology. They can offer individual counselling and consultation in relation to the academic, social and emotional wellbeing of all students. Their role is to offer confidential support and guidance to students and families regarding personal, developmental and family issues. They support teaching staff by providing advice on educational assessment and management of students, which may include diagnostic testing.

They work closely with Learning Support staff in developing individual learning programs for students identified as having special needs. They initiate and liaise with external support personnel as required, and provide support within the School’s pastoral care system.
