Student Wellbeing

The health and wellbeing of our students, staff and community is a top priority.

Absences

Please report absences before 8:30am on the day of the absence. 

Use the 'Report Absence' function on our SchoolBridge app, phone the school office on 846 8311 or email [email protected]. If no notification is received, a text will be sent to the students parents/cargivers mobile phone.

Wellness Room (Nurse and First Aid)
  • First Aid will be at the Main Office between 8am - 9am and 3pm - 4pm. 
  • First Aid will be at the Wellness Room, where the School Nurse is located, between 9am - 3pm. 
  • If a student needs to be collected from the Wellness Room Parents/Caregivers should go there directly. The Wellness Room is located opposite the gym. The nurse will sign the student out when you arrive.
  • If a student is Year 10 or under she must be collected from school. She cannot travel home alone.
Physiotherapy Clinic

At Marist College the care and development of the whole person is central to our philosophy. Therefore, the love and care of each other is the responsibility of every student and adult, part of our community. 

Our Physiotherapist Tanya Browne runs our School Physiotherapy Clinic, hours are Term time, Mondays and Wednesdays, 8am to 1pm.

Book online at: https://maristphysio.setmore.com/
or contact her directly on mobile 0274990539 or email [email protected]

Tanya's main clinic is located at 218 Parnell Rd Auckland 1042. www.sportsphysio.co.nz

Affordable fees have been introduced. For 30 minute appointments: Students $15, Staff $30

Unfortunately, due to a large number of incidents of non attendance without notification, a fee will be charged to cover loss of income. Ideally this wouldn't be charged, because notice is given to cancel or reschedule the appointment. This ensures that everyone who needs access can get a booking too.

ACC claims can be lodged at the clinic without a Doctor's referral. Referrals for Radiology and to other colleagues can be provided as needed.

Guidance Counselling

The philosophy of the Guidance Counsellor is to listen to and support students so that they are able to learn and develop fully. All students may access this service through a self-referral process via email or directly at the Guidance Counsellor’s room. Looking out for the wellbeing of all students, Deans and whanau may also make student referrals to the Guidance Counsellor. When necessary, families may be supported to access specialised expertise of external agencies.  

Guidance Counselling is private and confidential. The exception to this is in instances of serious harm to self and/or others where a Code of Ethics requires that further support is accessed. Students are informed of this expectation.    

Online bookings are available for our Counsellors through the link below:
