Mental Health & Wellbeing Leader

At Thomastown Meadows Primary School, we are committed to supporting the mental health and wellbeing of every student. As part of the Victorian Government’s Mental Health in Primary Schools initiative, we recognise that positive wellbeing is essential for students to feel safe, connected and ready to learn.

Our school is proud to have a dedicated Mental Health and Wellbeing Leader who works closely with students, staff, families and external agencies to promote positive mental health across the school community.

The Mental Health and Wellbeing Leader supports students by:

• Providing early intervention and wellbeing support

• Assisting students to develop social and emotional skills

• Supporting students experiencing challenges with friendships, emotions, behaviour or engagement

• Working collaboratively with teachers to create inclusive and supportive learning environments

• Connecting families with appropriate services and supports when needed

• Leading whole-school wellbeing initiatives and programs

At Thomastown Meadows Primary School, we believe that every child deserves to feel valued, supported and empowered to thrive both academically and personally. Through a strong focus on wellbeing, we continue to build a positive school culture where all students can flourish.
