Dear Parents & Carers,

As part of our commitment to student wellbeing at Kingswood, this semester year levels are trialling the implementation of URSTRONG’s school-wide Friendship curriculum called Friendology . Initially our Year 2 cohort trialled this curriculum and experienced success in students’ ability to manage friendship issues and develop their understanding of what is normal within friendships over time. 

URSTRONG’s whole-school friendship strategy has improved the social climate in schools around the world, connecting over a million kids, parents and teachers with a common language of friendship. We are proud to be a URSTRONG School and are committed to empowering your children with friendship skills.

You are invited to take advantage of a FREE Parent Membership to access hundreds of resources – including an 8 session video series. This will allow you to learn the same language & strategies being taught in the classroom through the Friendology 101 curriculum. We hope that, as a URSTRONG Family, you will reinforce the important messages of empowerment, self-compassion and kindness at home.

As a next step, we would recommend:

• Activate your FREE Parent Membership and explore all the resources available to your family.

We believe that empowering our students with these skills will create a culture of kindness at our school and we hope that, together, we can support your children to have healthy, feel-good friendships.
