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.

The Wellbeing Team at Canley Vale High School work collaboratively to promote and ensure that there is a whole school approach to wellbeing.

At CVHS, we ensure that our students are actively connected to their learning, have positive and respectful relationships and experience a sense of belonging to their school and community, are respected, valued, encouraged, supported and empowered to succeed. Our school’s vision is to grow and flourish, do well and thrive.

Student Wellbeing includes all things the school community does to meet the personal, social and learning needs of students.  The team utilises school-wide systems of support to establish a positive school climate where students are valued, and parents share in the education of their children as well as sharing in the responsibility of shaping their child’s understanding and attitudes about acceptable behaviour.

The core elements of Wellbeing and the vision for Wellbeing at CVHS, is to ensure that the following are achieved:

• creating a safe environment
• ensuring connectedness
• engaging students in learning
• promoting social and emotional learning

The CVHS Welfare Team embrace the ‘We Care’ culture when dealing with student wellbeing ensuring that every student is known, valued and cared for.

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.
