NZ's first Visible Wellbeing School

Samuel Marsden Collegiate School

Samuel Marsden Collegiate School takes wellbeing education seriously. They are committed to improving the mental wellbeing and happiness of all students, Preschool to Year 13, at both its campuses in Karori and Whitby.

The Visible Wellbeing approach, in partnership with Professor Lea Waters, is a framework that can be applied to every lesson and activity, academic and co-curricular.

Research has shown that taking an intentional, strategic approach to student wellbeing provides positive flow-on effects to learning outcomes, and gifts each student the skills to manage their own wellbeing, lifelong.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
