Positive Education
Saints provides a safe, inclusive and engaging learning environment and we are a world leader in wellbeing and positive education.
Our wellbeing framework is based on the work of internationally renowned psychologist Professor Martin Seligman and consists of positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning and accomplishment.
We teach seven scientifically-informed positive education programs from Australia, England, and the US that have demonstrated impacts on student wellbeing. We also teach lifelong personal competencies to develop resilience as well as an understanding of individual character strengths.
Pastoral expertise and support is also provided by two registered psychologists and two chaplains who work across all year levels to help boys and their families.
Pastoral Care and Houses
Our Houses are fundamental to the pastoral care system at Saints and promote social, academic, spiritual and emotional wellbeing. They provide many opportunities to participate in annual traditions and community activities, enhancing a sense of belonging and camaraderie. Friendships formed by boys during House activities often last a lifetime.
