The Resilience Project delivers emotionally engaging programs that provides practical, evidence-based mental health strategies to build resilience and happiness in our students.  Our students particpate in weekly Resilience Project lessons, which focus on  three key pillars that have been proven to cultivate positive emotion; 

Gratitude, Empathy and Mindfulness (GEM), with Emotional Literacy being a foundational skill to practise these strategies.

St Augustine's is now a Be You Learning Community. Be You is a national initiative for educators, aimed at promoting and protecting positive mental health in children and young people. The Be You framework allows educators and services to start at the point which suits them best when supporting students in their mental health and wellbeing.  

 

The eSmart's program goal is to keep children safe from bullying, cyber bullying and violence. This is done through creating awareness and trying to raise a generation of smart, safe and responsible children who are capable and compassionate – both on and offline. This program helps create responsible digital citizens. 

 

 

Seasons for Growth is a small group education program that supports children and young people to develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes to understand and respond well to experiences of change, loss and grief.

 

 

Through Better Buddies, children in their first and last year of primary school buddy up and learn the values: caring for others, friendliness, respect, valuing difference, including others and responsibility. All children in the school learn these values through formal and informal activities.

 

 

We also have a very supportive Wellbeing team that comprises of key school members:

- School psychologists

- School Chaplain,

- Wellbeing Leader,

- Diversity Leader, 

- School Nurse and

- The Principal

 

 

Together the team collaborates and formulates the best pathway for students.
