Wellbeing

University Campus is a unique community within the Ivanhoe landscape and one that is heavily influenced by the developmental needs of Year 9 students. With this in mind, we as a Wellbeing team, are looking to focus our program on skill development to assist when navigating change and challenge, and to equip the students with strategies as they move into the senior years of schooling, and beyond. All University Campus students have access to a Mentor, who they see every morning for roll marking and daily notices, and twice a week for wellbeing lessons. The Mentor plays the key pastoral role of providing a conduit between the school community and families. Students and Mentors are then supported by a Head of Wellbeing.

Underpinned by the Wellbeing Framework, we aim our pastoral attention on the cultivation of a growth mindset, emotional and social literacy, and resilience. At University Campus there is a strong focus on independence from students, as they take ownership of their learning as well as their character growth and transitioning to Senior School forms the key focus of the program as students transition back to their home campus.
