Wellbeing

Wellbeing Initiatives

Throughout each year, the Student Welfare Team of our school implements a number of programs to assist students to cater for welfare needs.

Student Wellbeing Programs

Our school offers a variety of programs where students explore self esteem, teamwork, personal goals, bullying, making healthy choices and building positive relationships.

Rock and Water

Most students at some point during their time at Kariong Mountains High School will have the opportunity to participate in the Rock and Water program.

Students will develop, through a self-defence form using exercises and strengthening drills, a growing awareness of themselves on their way to adulthood.

On one hand they are taught to defend themselves from various forms of violence and on the other hand they are taught to grow more awareness of boundaries and the consequences of crossing them.

Managing the Bull

‘Managing the Bull’ is a 6-week course that builds resilience in teens through games, activities and discussions. In a safe, supportive environment, participants will learn to:

• Recognise bullying
• Discover inner strengths
• Build self esteem
• Communicate effectively
• Deal with cyber-bullying
• Build support networks
• Use personal protection plans
