Student Wellbeing & Support
Students have access to a counsellor and nurse, free of charge, during school hours.
All students receive wrap-around support from a team including their Whānau Ako class, teachers, Kaiārahi (Tutor Teachers), Kaitiaki (Deans), Deputy Principals, Counsellor, Registered Nurse, Careers Advisor, Gateway Administrator, and SENCO (Special Needs Co-ordinator).
If you are concerned about your child’s wellbeing, or there are situations in the student’s life that we should be aware of, please contact your child’s Kaiārahi or call our school office on 07 304 8211 to speak with our nurse or counsellor.
