Emotional Well-being

Through a vibrant teaching environment and exciting co-curricular activities, HWA strives to guide our students to embrace learning and life, develop a variety of interests and build a positive outlook on life. The school also actively promotes mental well-being by providing timely and effective psychological counselling to facilitate holistic development.

At HWA, our dedicated Well-Being team believes that every learner brings a unique set of perspectives into our diverse community. Our counselling services are tailored to the individual’s needs and is a means to provide support and guidance for our young learners as they grow into their full potential.

Through our pastoral care and well-being curriculum, our students acquire socio-emotional skills such as peer relations, self-regulatory techniques and responsible decision-making. By giving our students regular opportunities to work together and leverage on the strengths of their members, they learn to build relationships and develop communication skills that will come in handy to manage interpersonal difficulties.

Our counsellor meets learners for anything from a casual drop-by to more in-depth discussions during snack and lunch times, as well as after school. Meetings with the counsellor can be scheduled via email, in-person or asking teachers to arrange a session on their behalf. We believe that it takes a village to raise a child; hence, HWA values the importance of working together with parents, teachers and other staff to create a conducive and safe learning environment for all of our students.
