We are living in a different world. As a school, we know how important health and wellness are for everyone. Although there are eight known dimensions of wellness; we have chosen to focus on the four most relevant to students and families: physical, social, spiritual and emotional well-being on this website.
Physical wellness relates to maintaining a healthy body and seeking care when needed. Physical health is attained and maintained through exercise, eating well, getting enough sleep and paying attention to the signs of illness and getting help when needed.
Social wellness helps you connect in social roles effectively and comfortably, by creating a positive support network. By developing positive and healthy relationships with peers and adults alike, they help you celebrate your joys and comfort you in your sorrows.
Spiritual wellness is seeking meaning and purpose by developing a set of values. Spirituality can be represented in many ways, for example, some use relaxation techniques, practice religion, or by service to others. But being spiritually well means knowing which resources to use to cope with issues that come up in everyday life.
Emotional wellness relates to understanding your feelings and coping effectively with stress. A little stress is actually motivating but when it becomes overwhelming, it is important to pay attention to self-care, relaxation, stress reduction and the development of inner resources so you can learn and grow from experiences.
