This part of our website has links to the people at the school who are available to support students and parents. Our team approach ensures the most appropriate person caters for the needs of our students.
The Year Level Dean is usually the first point of contact for students and parents.
The Student Engagement Team are located in both the Student Support Centre (oval side of the Library) and Deans' Office (C Block).

For one on one support, the Year Level Dean will complete a referral to present at the weekly Student Engagement Team meeting.
At the meeting, we discuss the referral; pass it on to the appropriate team member, who will organise a consultation.
Students can also make their own appointments with support staff at the Student Support Centre before school or during breaks.
Parents can also contact support staff directly, via e-mail or phone.
