Wellbeing Hub

The Wellbeing Hub is open to students from 8.30am - 4.00pm daily. This is a dedicated space in the school for students and staff to manage stress, anxiety, and emotional challenges. It is a safe haven where individuals can take a break, practice mindfulness, self-regulate or seek support from our wellbeing team.

 

In addition to the Wellbeing Hub, students also have access to any of the four designated Safe Space in the school and the Sensory Garden. 

 

Safe Space rooms are resourced to equip students with tools to self-regulate. Students are able to take micro-breaks in a Safe Space room in order to relax, recharge and return to class ready to learn. 


The school’s Sensory Garden is specifically designed to stimulate and engage the senses while celebrating diversity and encouraging social interaction. Regular exposure to sensory-rich environments, like sensory gardens, enhances cognitive abilities, including memory, attention, and problem-solving skills and assists students to be in a mindframe ready to learn.
