WELLBEING Wellbeing Approach At Calvary, we believe positive wellbeing enables our students to function well and flourish, both on an individual level and at a social level. For us, student wellbeing is defined as a sustainable state of positive mood and attitude, resilience, satisfaction with self, relationships and experiences. Beliefs At Calvary we believe: Emotional, social and physical wellbeing of students is essential to REACH for success throughout their life Physically, socially and emotionally healthy students thrive and therefore it is important to address the underlying needs of all students Students flourish when they experience a sense of connectedness with the school and others Students have the capacity to develop increasing levels of self-responsibility and to develop their own wellbeing and positive behaviour Our relationships with students are underpinned by the values of justice, compassion, love and reconciliation Purpose At Calvary we aim to: Develop thriving people who REACH for Success across all areas of life Support students to build capacity Ensure the safety and wellbeing of all students Encourage the responsibility of one’s actions and emotions Develop an understanding of the impact of our choices Encourage choices and behaviours that are safe and respectful Support and celebrate the success and growth of each individual Promote and develop secure connections in our learning community Wellbeing at Calvary includes The Berry Street Education Model The Berry Street Education Model (BSEM) equips Calvary with practical, classroom-based strategies to increase the engagement of all students, including those with complex, unmet learning needs.It helps us to support students’ self-regulation, relationships and wellbeing, to increase student engagement and significantly improve learning outcomes.

Restorative practices At Calvary we use a restorative approach to problem solving that helps students and teachers to re-establish safety, rebuild relationships, and repair the harm caused. A restorative approach helps students take greater responsibility for their decisions and develop important life skills such as getting on with others and managing conflict. Restorative practices can also help to prevent behaviours of concern from happening in the first place.
