Wellbeing is a priority at Cathedral College and every adult shares responsibility for the welfare of our students. At the day to day level, we have a dedicated team of Homeroom Teachers and Year Level Coordinators who are always the first point of contact for our students and their parents. Together they work closely with the Heads of School to support students’ academic and personal wellbeing needs.
Our extensive wellbeing program includes a whole school approach with specific programs in both the Junior, Middle and Senior School that encourage building self-control, persistence and self-awareness. We also have a highly qualified team of health professionals, educational specialists and support staff who provide a range of wellbeing and pastoral care services to our students and their families.
