Supporting the emotional wellbeing of young people is central to life at Le Rocquier School and counsellor Abigail Allison is at the heart of that work.

Her day‑to‑day work includes one‑to‑one sessions, small group interventions and responding to moments of crisis, ensuring students’ emotional and physical safety is always prioritised.
