Student Wellness

Student Wellness

We believe in educating the whole child, knowing that resilient, emotionally mature and adaptable individuals are equipped and able to thrive and lead in an increasingly challenging and changing world.

School Family

Each child is known and loved. Our robust school systems create a happy and supportive school family. Grade 8 students are assigned to a specific tutor teacher who journeys with them throughout their high school career, thereby getting to know them well over this time.Tutors are overseen by Grade Heads who provide leadership and support to each grade.

Counselling

Our strong and experienced counselling department offers professional psycho-social counselling, educational support and vocational guidance ensuring self-reliance and the fulfilment of the student’s full potential.

Discipline

We are a disciplined school and aim to teach good behaviour through role modelling. We apply restorative justice where possible. There is a no-tolerance approach to bullying, harassmen, substance abuse and all forms of antisocial behaviour.
