Personal Counselling Services

Our counsellors provide comprehensive guidance and support to ensure the wellbeing of our students and to help them acquire the skills and attitudes needed to become effective and caring citizens and lifelong learners. Our counsellors work together with boarding staff, grade level leaders, teachers and families to provide a comprehensive team approach when it comes to supporting students.

Greetings From Our Counsellors!

Aliya Allibhai                                        

We would like to extend a warm welcome to all students and families who have joined us or are thinking of joining. We love it when our community grows! As part of the overall support team at Prem, we are two of the many people here to help you feel welcomed, respected, and supported.

The Counselling Department works with Junior School and Senior School students to really listen to what’s on students’ minds and to hear what’s affecting their hearts. We help students catch negative thinking and change it around.  We engage them in thoughtful reflection.  We help students tolerate frustrations and practice self-calming techniques.

We work in strong cooperation with other teachers, with the Principals, and of course, with guardians and parents to ensure student well-being. You can often find us in the classroom too, doing workshops on peer pressure, teamwork, self-esteem, gratitude, and lots more. You’re bound to see us on campus!

Strengthening Connections

On a regular basis, we reach out to parents and offer workshops on topics of interest, including cybersafety, drug awareness, child protection, and more. In our one-on-one sessions, we find ways to help students practise increased levels of self-care, compassion, and courage.
