Wellbeing
Creating a Safe, Inclusive and Caring School Community
Wellbeing is at the forefront of all we do at GPS. Staff, students and families work together to ensure everyone feels safe, supported and included at our school.
At Gladesville, we provide a safe, nurturing, and vibrant learning community that accommodates the uniqueness of each and every student. We provide a learning environment and curriculum that challenges students to be their best, and that develops the knowledge, skills and spirit to be successful global citizens.
Consistent values, routines and expectations underpin teaching and learning and guide our interactions and relationships. The GPS community has a consistent and positive approach to behaviour and we work hard to ensure a school climate where independence, resilience, personal responsibility and self-discipline are grown.
In addition to our teaching and support staff, we have a highly knowledgeable Mental Health and Wellbeing Leader, two dedicated wellbeing officers and exceptional student leaders, working together to ensure our school is safe, supportive and fun.
SWPBS
School Wide Positive Behaviour Support (SWPBS) is a framework that brings together school communities to develop positive, safe, supportive learning cultures.
Student Leadership
At Gladesville, Student Leadership gives students a genuine voice in the school, building confidence, responsibility and a strong sense of belonging.
Peer Mentors
Through our Peer Mentor Program, older students support younger peers, helping to build confidence, leadership and strong relationships across the school.
Buddy Program
Our Year 6 students support the new students with their transition to school. Each week during the year, the buddies get together for various fun activities.
