Finding Balance

A part of student success at Westbourne is the quality of independent work completed away from College balanced by the need for socialisation and relaxation, something that reflects the IB Learner Profile trait, “Balanced”.

Westbourne has been providing a variety of experiences for students to inspire and encourage balance throughout their studies.

Most recently, Natasha Lai-Butler (a parent from Class of 2023 and qualified meditation instructor) guided DP1 and DP2 students in a formal meditation session in our pastoral care session. This is in addition to a number of students benefiting from confidential discussions with a counsellor along with teaching staff conducting regular welfare “check-ins” with students on how they are managing their school work.

Meanwhile, the Year 10 cohort ventured on a Rocks Walk where students learnt about the early history of European settlement in Sydney during pastoral care.

The learning culture at Westbourne is excellent with respect to engaging in classes and the use of study time at College. Patrick McGing, Principal
