Pastoral Care

A school is most effective when a sense of community is carefully fostered so that students feel a sense of belonging and feel supported in reaching their potential. In such an environment, students are best able to flourish personally, spiritually and academically. At Daramalan College we want all members of our community to achieve a sustainable state of positive health and wellbeing, resilience, academic achievement and to be able to build and maintain positive relationships.

Our Pastoral Care system is based on the ethos of the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart. We value the uniqueness of each student, and seek to develop the whole person, guiding them with high expectations, clear supportive networks and opportunities to explore their faith and leadership. This also means that education is seen as a partnership between parents, teachers and the student and we place great importance on working and communicating with parents.
