Group Counselling Sessions
We are now offering group counselling sessions 4 days a week!
With an increasing rise in anxiety related issues and students: missing
school, not submitting assessment, not sitting examinations, or being
described as ‘upset' or 'down,’ the school welfare team will be taking a
pro-active approach this term.
The School Guidance
Officer/Registered Psychologist will be offering group counselling
intervention to all students to: minimise anxiety, re-focus, re-engage,
or to develop a specific ability which could include study, sport or
other, and succeed. The therapy includes: visualisation, mindfulness,
relaxation, re-framing negative to positive, and goal setting. Regular
attendance or a minimum of 3 sessions is recommended
Middle Years 7,8,9: Every Monday and Wednesday 1.10pm (second break)
Senior Years 10,11,12: Every Tuesday and Thursday 1.10pm (second break)
Location: School Library RC07
Students do NOT need to make a booking, please come along and bring your friends should you require some moral support!
Homework Club
Ms Keegan hosts the Homework Club every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 3:00 - 4:00pm in the Learning Hub.
All students are welcome. Come along to work on assignments, study in a quiet environment or to study for exams.
