Connect
Young people thrive when they feel safe, happy and connected. Our focus is on supporting all students to develop the habits necessary to face challenges and achieve success.
Known, Supported and connected.
At Thornbury High School, strong relationships and a sense of belonging are central to a positive school experience. We are committed to creating a safe, inclusive and supportive environment where every student feels valued, connected and empowered to succeed.
Through our sub-school structures, commitment to student wellbeing and opportunities for student voice, we support young people to develop confidence, build meaningful relationships and contribute positively to our school community.
Sub Schools
Divided physically and organisationally, the program at each subschool (year level) is led by a dedicated team of staff. Taking a holistic approach, the team work collaboratively using multidisciplinary approaches. They focus on the range of goals, aspirations and needs of children, young people and families. Students’ pathways through and beyond school are managed by subschools. Subschools are in discrete parts around the school where lockers, recreational spaces and classrooms become the students’ place to be.
Health and Wellbeing
Students’ physical, mental and social health underpin their active engagement in learning. An environment that facilitates students being physically active and one that limits recreational screen time is important at school. These actions develop positive, life-long healthy behaviours
