The wellbeing of today’s youth has never been more challenging<\/em><\/h3>\n

To commence the beginning of 2021, the College hosted two significant days as a means of supporting the needs of our students as they prepare for the year ahead. These two days were most valuable: Year 7 Welcome Day and the Year 11 Transition Day. Our aim was to provide an opportunity to foster good relationships, prepare the girls for the year(s) ahead and suggest appropriate strategies and tips to help the transition process. A special thank you must be extended to the Wellbeing Team – under the direction of Ms Gemma Muller (our new Assistant Leader of Wellbeing) and all the House Co-ordinators in preparing and facilitating a fun day! It is also important that we acknowledge the commitment and dedication of our Student Leaders who kindly offered their time to lead some of the activities. As usual they demonstrated their Marist spirit in staying true to our ethos of exercising their \u201cGoodness Above All\u201d<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Please help me in welcoming our new House Co-ordinators. They are extremely committed to supporting the social and emotional wellbeing needs of your daughters and facilitating their development and growth throughout the time at the College. In the coming week, each House Coordinator will be sending an email introducing themselves. Our 2021 House Coordinators are:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\nOur other new additional member to the Wellbeing team is College Counsellor – Ms <\/span>Monica Rogenmose<\/span>r<\/span> who has replaced Becky Salter. Monica comes with significant expertise in the area of understanding and supporting the various needs of young adolescents. Please feel free to reach out to her should you wish to speak with about the concerns that you may have regarding your daughter(s).<\/span><\/p>\n

In moving forward this year, the vision for Wellbeing at the College is to continue to foster good relationships whilst affirming the interdependence that exists between Learning and Wellbeing. Research is very clear in stating the students will not thrive, flourish nor engage in their learning if they are not at their optimal best. Therefore the question needs to be asked <\/span>\u201chow well do we know our learner? How well do we know our students?\u201d. <\/span><\/i>To assist us in better understanding our students and their specific needs, we need to be actively engaging in conversations with them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
