Wellbeing

At our school, student wellbeing and learning go hand in hand. We want every student to feel safe, included and ready to learn. Whether your child needs help with their mental, emotional, social or physical wellbeing, we are here to help them thrive at school and in daily life.

At Chifley College Senior Campus, we have a strong focus on student wellbeing. We believe that a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment is essential for every student’s success. We have various, well-established support systems in place to ensure that every student thrives – academically, emotionally, and socially.

Wellbeing Team (Year Group Leadership Teams)

The Wellbeing & Leadership Teams work together to ensure that their students in their respective year groups have the wellbeing support required for them to thrive and succeed.

Our school has a Student Support Officer and a Community Liaison Officer who support both year groups.

School counsellors

The role of our school counsellors includes:

• Strengthening our schools' student welfare provisions
• Providing psychological assessments of students with specific needs
• Assessing a student’s learning and behaviour
• Helping teachers and students identify and address disabilities that may affect learning
• Liaising with other agencies regarding student wellbeing

How we support student wellbeing

Supporting each student’s mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing is part of everyday school life.

We do this through:

• teachers who help students feel welcome and included
• access to school counsellors, school psychologists and specialist staff
• programs that support health, social skills, attendance and positive behaviour
• help for students who are new or changing year levels
• clear expectations for behaviour and respectful relationships
• staff who get to know each child and work closely with families
• developing health care plans for students
• open communication about wellbeing and support.
