Student Wellbeing

Student wellbeing is fundamental to all that we do at Mt St John’s Primary School. We are committed to providing a safe and caring environment where the welfare of students is protected and nurtured. We seek to provide a place where students can thrive.

Our Pastoral Care for our students’ wellbeing is based upon:

  • The values of the Catholic faith that encourage us to see the inherent dignity of each person and to treat one another with compassion, respect, kindness and justice.
  • Relationships in which every individual experiences being cared for, respected and valued.
  • Student participation, which means creating opportunities for students to have a voice in matters that concern them at school.
  • Working closely and collaboratively with parents and carers in promoting the wellbeing of students.
