The Secondary School Counselling Team supports students with various social and emotional needs by providing counselling sessions as needed through one-to-one or small group sessions. School staff or parents/guardians may refer students for counselling, or students may request counselling. The aim of the school counselling service is to help students have a more effective education and socialisation within the school community. Possible counselling topics are - coping with changes, transition, self-esteem, friendship and relationship issues, study skills, stress management, fears or worries, academic progress, conflict resolution, social skills, adjustment to school and/or culture. These services are available at no cost. However, these services are not intended as a substitute for medication, psychological counselling or diagnosis. The Counseling team also leads and implements the Secondary School's Personal Social Development (PSD) curriculum.
