The team consists of two youth workers who work collaboratively with leadership, teaching staff and students to provide the students of Casey Fields Primary with opportunities to utilise a youth voice in decision-making in their own wellbeing journey.

 

The Wellbeing Space

The Wellbeing Hub shares a space with the library in which allows for students to access a quiet space during times that they may need it. Students are welcome to use the space when they are overwhelmed or need additional support from the Wellbeing Team, or, when they are hoping to engage in Wellbeing Club which operates:

  • Monday lunchtime for Year 4,5,6
  • Wednesday lunchtime for Preps & Years 1, 2, 3

The Wellbeing Hub is stocked with fun boardgames, card games and interactive activities which can be used to support in prosocial engagement during Wellbeing Club, as well as group sessions facilitated by the youth workers.
