Student wellbeing is a collaborative effort between the student, their family, and the school. A student's happiness and emotional wellbeing are just as important as their academic achievements. Our Wellbeing Team provides support for both students and their families throughout their educational journey. By fostering strong partnerships, we nurture mental, emotional, and social growth, ensuring students feel confident, supported, and valued. Guided by our school motto: Pride, Success, and Excellence, we are committed to empowering every student to reach their full potential—both inside and outside the classroom.
