Your Wellbeing Support Team @ Redeemer

Year 11 and 12 is a busy time and you must make time to look after your social, emotional and physical wellbeing. The staff at Redeemer support the mental health and wellbeing of our students and are here to assist.

Learning Mentor

You can approach your Learning Mentor during your regular timetabled learning mentor class or at their staff room. Your Learning Mentor will be able to listen and offer you help and assistance. They will work with your Head of House to ensure you have good support in place to tackle any challenges you may be facing.

Head of House

Heads of House have oversight of individual student’s educational journey. Heads of House monitor the general well-being of students in the year level, including individual student welfare and progress in all aspects – academic, behavioural and pastoral. They can assist you to find the right support for any concerns or issues.

College Counsellor

Students seek counselling to discuss concerns about their academic skills, motivation, time management and well-being. Our College Counsellor provides a range of support services to staff, students and families. Assistance may include advice and counselling on educational, behavioural, personal, social, family, and mental health and wellbeing issues. You can contact the counsellor through email or by visiting onsite.

Nurse

The College Nurse is able to assist you with any general or specific health concerns. The nurse also educates students about healthy habits as well as responding to any medical complaints at school and performing routine checks.

Learning Enhancement Staff

Learning Enhancement staff ensure that students are given the opportunities necessary to make meaningful progress in learning. If you attend Learning Enhancement, it is important that you are well prepared, motivated and ask questions when you’re stuck in order to make the most of timetabled lessons.

English as an Additional Language Staff

Learning English is essential for success at school and for further education, training and employment. Attending English as an additional language (EAL) classes will allow students from a non-English speaking background to fully participate in senior schooling and maximise your potential. If you attend EAL classes, it is important that you are well prepared, motivated and ask questions in order to make the most of timetabled lessons.

Chaplaincy Services

The College Pastor and Chaplains provide support for students and can be an additional adult role model and mentor to connect with.
