Tahnee Manuel, our Assistant Principal for Wellbeing/Student Support, oversees Wellbeing across the whole school. The aim of this role is to ensure the wellbeing and therefore positive engagement in learning of all of the students at Flagstaff Hill Primary School.
In addition to working closely with Sarah, our PCW, we aim to support students by teaching:
- Growth mindset
- Interoception skills which focus on emotions and self-awareness
- Friendology Curriculum.
We have a 'Room of Requirement' which is available during lunch times for those students who need a break, and a chance to talk to a supportive adult. In addition to this, we have 'Zen Zone' for students to re-regulate and reset when needed, located in our Front Office. We also hold a Breakfast Club that is held Monday, Wednesday, Friday each week.
The school Wellbeing Committee meets weekly to discuss any concerns about a student’s wellbeing or attendance. A plan is implemented to support identified students and families better access the learning opportunities on offer.
