Fulfil your potential

The transition from school to university is incredibly exciting but not without its challenges.

While you come to grips with new routines, we provide practical support for your wellbeing and learning that is designed to set you up for success.

“I think Emmanuel, with the tutorial programs and all the academic support it provides, has been really helpful for me. It's made the transition to uni life so much easier having that support.”

We aim to provide you with a comprehensive wellbeing program that enables opportunities to strengthen the development of your sense of self and encourages you to explore and understand your own wellbeing. The program is delivered through education, training, life skills, wellness sessions, lectures, and interactive online and face-to-face learning.

Our program offers support and specialised care when you need it and is tailored to address the unique needs of adolescents and young adults. Our Dean of Studies is available to help with academic and residential concerns, and our college counsellors are available to support you if you’re experiencing personal pressures, stress or anxiety to assist with your mental health and wellbeing. We can also help with referrals to the most suitable external counsellors and psychologists.

Our Residential Experience Officers are here 24/7 to keep you safe and provide practical help when needed. Our Deputy Principal and Director of Wellbeing are available outside of office hours to support our REOs with any student facing issues that may require additional support.

Appointments with members of the Student Engagement Team can be arranged through our online booking system or at our reception desk.
