Boarding Life

Pastoral Care

Pastoral care is an active demonstration of concern for the growth and wellbeing of every each student in particular. It is a commitment to the broader school community in general. It focuses on cultivating an environment and culture that supports the physical, social, intellectual, emotional and spiritual development of every student.

At Kāsiga, Pastoral Care includes proactive elements such as;

  • Developing skills that build resilience
  • Promoting a school culture that emphasizes respect, teamwork and participation.

And reactive elements like;

  • Providing comfort in response to hurt
  • Encouragement in the face of disappointment.
