How we support student engagement and wellbeing at QHPS
The Quarry Hill Primary School wellbeing program is a pro-active, multi-faceted program, which aims to empower students and embed social values. It addresses the health, safety, wellbeing, and engagement of students and recognises that all young people, regardless of their circumstances and background, have the opportunity to participate and engage in learning opportunities and emerge equipped with the knowledge and skills they need for the future.
