Student and Family Counselling Service
Families at St John the Apostle Primary School have access to a student and family counselling service provided by CatholicCare Canberra & Goulburn. The school counsellor can assist with a range of concerns relating to students' social and emotional well-being, including family conflict and relationship changes, mental health concerns, grief and loss, peer and social relationships, stress, and behavioural challenges. The counsellor can provide individual sessions with students, facilitate groups, work with families and teachers, and refer to external supports and services.
The student and family counsellor is available at St John the Apostle on Wednesday and Friday. There is no fee for this service however at times there may be a wait list. To receive counselling a referral and consent form is required, which can be accessed at the front office.
