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 Callala Public School, we believe that the wellbeing of our students is fundamental to their academic success, personal growth, and overall happiness. As we place a strong emphasis on nurturing the holistic development of every child, we are committed to creating a supportive and inclusive environment where their wellbeing is valued and prioritised. Our school culture is built on respect, kindness and inclusivity. We promote a safe and supportive learning environment where every student feels valued, accepted, and empowered to be their authentic selves.

How we support student wellbeing

Our school values are:   Respect | Responsibiility | Participation

Supporting each student’s mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing is part of everyday school life. To support positive wellbeing, students engage in a variety of opportunities throughout the year. Activities to support positive wellbeing include:

• The resilience Project - a whole school program that through presentations, student curriculum, teacher resources and digital content supports mental health and builds resilience focusing on Gratitude, Empathy, Mindfulness and Emotional Literacy.
• Harmony Day - a celebration that recognises our diversity and brings together Australians from all different backgrounds, fostering inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone.
• Doing Things Together Days - a highlight for all students where once a term they are placed into groups with peers from other grades and classes. Teachers provide a range of fun activities in their classrooms and the groups can choose the activities they would like to complete.
• 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
