Student Wellbeing Worker


This project was funded by the Australian Government Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations under the National School Chaplaincy and Student Welfare Program.

 

At St. Albans East Primary School we have a Student Wellbeing Worker (SWW). The role of the SWW is to provide pastoral care to students and parents/guardians within the school.

 

Programs on offer during the year include:

Support could be individual or group-based and may involve:

→ Support and basic counselling

Assistance can be provided regarding various issues, for example:

→ Bereavement (grief/loss)
