Wellbeing Support
The wellbeing of our students is a priority and we work proactively to develop, maintain and encourage a caring and orderly learning environment for our students.

At Lavalla Catholic College we have Wellbeing & House Leaders in place to guide your child through their learning journey.
The role of the House Leader / Wellbeing Leader is to lead Student Wellbeing, general and specific areas of pastoral care, liaise with parents as well as maintain discipline and College expectations within the House.
