At Cappoquin Primary School, we believe that wellbeing is at the heart of every child’s ability to learn, grow, and succeed. A focus on wellbeing means helping children feel safe, valued, and supported as they navigate the world around them. From building friendships to exploring new skills, our school is committed to fostering an environment where every student can flourish emotionally, socially, and physically.

We know that wellbeing is about more than just being happy; it’s about teaching children how to handle challenges, express their feelings, and develop resilience. Our school provides opportunities for students to practice mindfulness, engage in physical activity, and participate in creative outlets like art and music. These activities help children build confidence, reduce stress, and develop a positive sense of self.

Strong relationships are another key part of wellbeing. We encourage students to build connections with their peers, teachers, and the wider school community. Our programs include peer mentoring, group projects, and regular activities that celebrate kindness, teamwork, and respect for others. Through these experiences, children learn the importance of empathy and feel a sense of belonging that strengthens their emotional health.

We also recognize the importance of working together with families to support wellbeing. By fostering open communication and providing resources for parents and caregivers, we ensure that every child feels supported both at school and at home. Together, we can help our students develop the tools they need to thrive today and in the future.
