Nerang High School has a committed Support Team who work together
to support and care for the well being of our students. Throughout
a student’s life he or she faces many changes physically, socially
and mentally. Along this pathway of change, many young people may
need to have support systems in place to help them make some very
important decisions.

These decisions may relate to career, personal issues, grief and
loss or peer support. Some students need a lot of support and some
need very little. Nerang High School Support Team are here to lend
a friendly hand to help our young people reach their goals and have
an overall positive well-being.
