We prioritise a secure and positive environment for every boy, facilitated by meaningful interactions with class teachers, tutor teachers, and the House system. Our House system encourages interaction within a close-knit community, building camaraderie and a sense of belonging among students. These educators are primary contacts for students needing guidance or support.
Nurturing Student Wellbeing
Above all else, the wellbeing of our students takes precedence, ensuring each boy receives the highest standard of care.
Our pastoral care system nurtures the holistic development of each student through promoting self-awareness and mutual support for each other. Our small class sizes, combined with a dedicated team of faculty and support roles, allow us to closely monitor each student’s social, academic, and emotional growth.
Our students build trust-based relationships with their tutors and teachers. Friendly and respectful relationships enable us to create a safe environment where any issues, such as academic challenges or wellbeing needs, can be addressed promptly and effectively.
Enhanced wellbeing is directly linked to improved academic performance, stronger social skills, and a healthier self-image, thereby supporting all students in their endeavours to succeed.
Embracing Leadership – the Miromiro Badge
The Miromiro Badge, inspired by the Miromiro bird, is awarded to Year 8 students in a special assembly, symbolising leadership and the protection of younger peers. This ceremony includes a haka performance by our Kapa Haka group, challenging leaders to embrace their responsibilities.
Saint Kentigern’s educational journey is underpinned by our core values of respect, integrity, service, excellence, and love, ensuring student wellbeing and service remain at the forefront of our mission.
