What Our Support Services Mean for Your Child
Navigating school life can sometimes feel overwhelming. Whether your child is dealing with big feelings, friendship struggles, or major life changes, our team is here to walk alongside them.
Here is a look at the different types of support we offer:
1. School Counselling
- What it is: Confidential, 1-on-1 sessions with a trained counsellor.
- What it means for your child: A safe space to explore personal challenges, build self-esteem, learn coping strategies for anxiety or stress, and process difficult emotions without judgment.
2. School Social Work
- What it is: Holistic support connecting the child, family, school, and community.
- What it means for your child: Practical guidance for complex social or family situations, assistance with behavioral challenges, and advocacy to ensure their home and school environments work together for their success.
3. ELSA Support (Emotional Literacy Support Assistant)
- What it is: Specialised, short-term support delivered by trained teaching assistants.
- What it means for your child: Fun, interactive sessions tailored to specific emotional needs, such as recognising feelings, managing anger, navigating friendships, loss and bereavement, or social skills.
Our Goal: Every intervention is gentle, personalised, and designed to equip your child with lifelong tools for emotional wellbeing.
