Our Lady of Good Counsel Primary School wellbeing program is overseen by the Student Wellbeing Leader. Staff creates a positive school community that promotes the wellbeing of all students to contribute to their academic success. We educate the students using the Resilience, Rights and Respectful Relationships program. The Resilience, Rights and Respectful Relationships (RRRR) learning materials cover eight topics of Social and Emotional Learning across all primary levels of education: Emotional Literacy; Personal Strengths; Positive Coping; Problem Solving; Stress Management; Help Seeking; Gender and Identity; and Positive Gender Relationships.
Through a school referral process, students have access to services provided by Catholic Education Melbourne including speech, psychology and educational advisors. OLGC will also accommodate students and families who may wish to attend private occupational therapy or speech therapy during the day, while at school.
The student referral support group includes the Principal, Deputy Principal, Learning Diversity Leader and the Student Wellbeing Leader and meet regularly to assist teachers and parents with any concerns that may arise in relation to a student's development and wellbeing.
A Psychologist attends OLGC one day a week so that students and their families can be further supported. Referrals are made confidentially through the school Psychologist. Please contact the Learning Diversity Leader or Principal for more information.
