2024 Wellbeing Team at St Joseph’s

The wellbeing team at St. Joseph's is led by Maryanne Evans and Liz Noonan. The wellbeing team is available over each day. In this complex and busy world we live in, the needs of students have developed over time and being able to support them through our Wellbeing team is very important. Students can seek support for themselves or they can be referred by their teacher or a parent can contact the team directly or via email.

Typically, students seek support for friendship, personal or social situations. The support can be in small group or individual, one to one meetings or pastoral chats.
