The Student Wellbeing Support Worker role involves:
- Working with the school community to develop a school-wide approach to wellbeing.
- Coordinating with teachers, support staff, and families to strengthen student wellbeing at school.
- Assisting families to access external support services for their children as required.
Supporting students who are struggling with their wellbeing at school (in small groups or one-on-one). Challenges may include:
- Recognising and responding to difficult emotions
- Friendships and social skills
- Confidence and sense of self
- Dealing with everyday challenges
- Problem-solving
- Loss and grief
The process for raising concerns about your child’s wellbeing or mental health at school is to communicate with the Class Teacher. The teacher, in collaboration with Hayley as Deputy Principal – Student Support Leader, will then refer to our Student Wellbeing Support Worker as required.
