Student Wellbeing in JPJC – HEAR ME
At JPJC, we believe that students flourish when they are supported to learn well, live well and grow well.
Our Positive Education framework, HEAR ME, is contextualised from the PERMAH model of well-being and encompasses six interconnected domains: Positive Health, Engagement, Accomplishment, Relationships, Meaning and Emotions.
HEAR ME is woven into students’ everyday experiences — through learning, Civics, CCAs, relationships and college life.
SWB Framework
Positive Health
Building habits for a healthier mind and body
We help students develop healthy habits and resilience and self-management to navigate the demands of JC life.
Through sleep hygiene awareness, Cyber Wellness education and our Rest Spaces, students learn the importance of sleep, healthy digital habits and taking intentional time to rest and recharge.

Positive Engagement
Discovering strengths, interests and opportunities to participate
Students flourish when they are actively involved in experiences that are meaningful to them.
Through classroom, CCA and student-led opportunities, we encourage students to discover their interests and strengths and take ownership of their well-being. Our Wellbeing Café brings this to life through experiences centred on connection, movement, mindfulness, creativity and self-care.

Positive Accomplishment
Growing through challenge and contribution
Accomplishment goes beyond academic results. Students are encouraged to set meaningful goals, persevere through challenges and recognise their growth.
Opportunities to lead and contribute to well-being initiatives also enable students to turn ideas into action and experience the impact they can make on their community.
Positive Relationships
Building a community where students look out for one another
A strong sense of connection, belonging and support is central to student well-being.
Our Peer Support training equips students to recognise peers who may need support, respond with care and connect them to trusted adults when needed. Relationships also extend into the digital world. Through Safer Internet Day and Cyber Wellness education, students develop awareness and self-management to navigate online relationships, digital spaces and emerging technologies safely and responsibly.

Positive Meaning
Finding purpose through belonging and contribution
Students are encouraged to understand their strengths, values and aspirations, and how these can contribute to something larger than themselves. Through student voice, peer initiatives and opportunities to serve the college community, students learn that they matter and their contributions matter.
Positive Emotions
Understanding emotions and developing skills to navigate them
Students learn to understand and manage both positive and difficult emotions, while recognising when and how to seek support.
Our well-being education through civics lessons equips students with practical strategies for navigating challenges, strengthening relationships and caring for their well-being. College experiences such as the Wellbeing Café also create opportunities for gratitude, connection and reflection.
