Holistic Approach to VCE Student Wellbeing

Glen Eira College endeavours to promote a holistic approach to student wellbeing by nurturing each student’s physical, emotional, cognitive, social and mental health.

These dimensions are developed in a healthy school community that continues to enhance and promote the value of each individual. One of the main priorities of the wellbeing team will be to provide extra support to all VCE students during this busy and hectic time of the year. We will be providing weekly baskets of fresh fruit and vegetables donated by the school and Woolworths Glen Huntly. This is to promote and encourage students to eat a nutritional diet, promote concentration and brain development.

The wellbeing team will also be providing extra support by allocating the Adolescent Health Nurse, Christalia Formoso to work from the VCE Centre for 3 weeks to provide further supports to the students as needed. The students will continue to have access to the wellbeing team:

Student Wellbeing Leader - Ms Jenny Sanchez

Student Support Service Psychologist - Ms Zoe Markopoulos

Student Support Worker - Ms Alyssa Zumbo 

A Headspace Clinician

We strongly encourage students to have a healthy work, study & play balance and to seek support as needed.
