Pastoral Care

Hello everyone,

Can you believe how quickly this term is going?

For the new families at the school my name is Coralie and I have been at Lockleys North for just over a year. I am a married with 1 adult son. I love to read, watch movies, trail run and eat (not necessarily in that order!)

 

My role is to offer pastoral (wellbeing) and practical support to the school and I’m part of the Wellbeing team. I am an extra resource working alongside teachers in the classroom and also supporting extracurricular activities and events. I work with students either in the classroom or one-on-one as necessary, primarily helping with setting up strategies around behaviour and social issues (fitting in, friendships, bullying) I am also available for the children if they have a problem they need to talk to someone about.

 

Another part of my role is to support parents/caregivers. If you need access to services but don’t know where to start I can help you with that. I also love to have a chat and get to know people. I have loved being able to meet some of you this year now that Covid restrictions have been lifted. 

 

I am at school Tuesday and Wednesday 8.30-1.30. Please feel free to come and introduce yourself if you see me around. You can find me in the yard, usually around the Fisher building gate, before school most mornings wearing a purple vest. Any other time please leave a message with the front office and I will get back to you soon as I am available to do so. If your child would like to talk to me they can ask their teacher or front office staff to contact me. I am also in the yard most break times.

 

Be safe and look out for each other!
