Counselor
The well-being and emotional state of each child is of vital importance at Kirstenhof Primary School. We pride ourselves on providing a safe and confidential environment in which our children, staff and their families can benefit from caring and professional support.
For this we have Mrs Arton-Powell, our Lead Counselor. Mrs Arton-Powell is a qualified social worker and she ensures that there is a safe place for children in need, and who need to talk, always ensuring they feel comfortable.
Learners dealing with severe loss, divorce, anxiety, bullying or low self-esteem are provided with the skills and support needed to face their challenges.
Parents are encouraged to attend meaningful parenting sessions on a range of topics such as ADD, healthy eating, pocket money and others.
Mrs Arton-Powell is available for consultation when needed and if required, extended counseling is outsourced.
You can contact Mrs Arton-Powell through the front office or via email.
