Wellbeing

Wellbeing is at the heart of our philosophy at NEGS Armidale. With small class sizes, every child is seen and valued, allowing us to focus on building meaningful, respectful relationships.

Being Healthy

Health comes from within as well as our outside factors such as sport, our community and our social network.

Personal Best

We know that being successful comes in many forms, which is why we encourage our students to be their own best.

Student Wellbeing and agency is at the core of our philosophy at NEGS, enabling our students to be strong, confident, positive and caring young people.

Positive and Supportive

Wellbeing is at the heart of our philosophy at NEGS Armidale. With small class sizes, every child is seen and valued, allowing us to focus on building meaningful, respectful relationships.

Our comprehensive wellbeing program is designed to support our students in all aspects of their lives. We prioritise the physical, mental, and social wellbeing of our students to ensure they thrive in a complex and changing world. 

Students have the opportunity to form meaningful connections with their teachers and peers, creating a supportive and nurturing environment that creates a sense of belonging and community. 

Our robust pastoral care team, including the Wellbeing Coordinator, Year Advisors, Tutors, Health Centre staff, and Boarding staff, work together to deliver a comprehensive program. Through health and fitness programs, we promote physical wellbeing and encourage an active lifestyle.

 

 

 

We work with a dedicated team of health professionals who provide individual support and guidance as required. Through health and fitness programs, we promote physical wellbeing and encourage an active lifestyle. We also collaborate with external resources such as Reachout, Headspace, Blackdog Institute, and the Office of eSafety Commissioner to provide additional support.

 

Cyber safety is a priority within our wellbeing program. We provide ongoing support and resources on online safety, inviting expert speakers to address students on relevant topics. This ensures they are well-informed and empowered to navigate the digital world safely.

 

At NEGS Armidale, we are committed to promoting the wellbeing of our students and providing them with the necessary tools and support to succeed and thrive.

A school for you

"Three things I love about NEGS are my friends, being more in nature and the different subjects that I can do like the hands on Agriculture. I just don't get this in the city."
"The grounds at NEGS are amazing. I love that we have the facilities at school to do the sport that I love, and hockey is one of them for me. Just love it."
"Being a NEGS Boarder is great. I feel independent and have learned a lot of different things. The teachers are amazing and were really important when I first arrived."
