Student Wellbeing

 Wellbeing coordinator

This year the coordinator role has been created to assist the wellbeing of our students K-6.

Mrs Davies is our Wellbeing Coordinator and is released from class each Friday to work with students in a variety of ways. This includes working with small groups of students in K-2 using ‘Bounce Back’ and students in 3-6 participating in the Rock and Water program. The programs are designed to assist students in developing social skills, building resilience and to help students with building self-confidence.  

This term we also began the “Breakfast Café’ on Friday morning. This will resume again once the current social restrictions are lifted.  Mrs Davies will also be available to meet with parents on Friday mornings between 9:00-10:00 if parents wish to discuss any wellbeing issues for their child or family, again this will commence in the future when our school timetable returns to normality.

Wellbeing officer

Mr Lyndon Reid works alongside teachers at Buxton, Monday to Thursday supporting the wellbeing of students K-6. Within classrooms and in the playground, Mr Reid interacts and engages children in a positive manner, modelling the behaviours children are expected to display at all times.
