MODELLING RESPECT AND EQUALITY (MoRE)

Our staff have been involved in the Modelling Respect and Equality (MoRE) program. This training is designed for adults who work closely with young people, including teachers, coaches and community leaders. 

The program is run by The Men’s Project and helps participants build skills and knowledge to promote respect, equality and positive relationships, especially among boys and young men. 

The program runs over six months and has included 

• A two-day training workshop for two members of staff 
• Ongoing support from MoRE staff and learning through PD  
• Opportunities to use these skills in school and the wider community  

This training supports our school’s commitment to creating a safe, respectful and inclusive environment for everyone. 

RRRR 

A recent topic covered in Yr 56....We have a problem; how can we deal with it? 

Students identified the problem in a scenario and  brainstormed possible options that  

may provide a solution to an interpersonal problem. 

Some great role-playing action below

RIGHTS, RESILIENCE AND RESPECTFUL RELATIONSHIPS

Recently, our Year 1 and 2 students have been taking part in an activity that helps build empathy as they consider how different situations may affect others. By listening to one another’s ideas, they engage in peer supported learning. The activity also provides opportunities to revisit language used to describe and understand more intense emotions, while exploring simple strategies to support self-regulation. 

10 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOUR SON THAT ARENT 'HOW WAS YOUR DAY?"

As parents and carers, one of the simplest ways we can support our children's wellbeing is by creating opportunities for meaningful conversations. While the usual "How was your day?" often results in a quick "good," asking more thoughtful questions can open the door to deeper discussions about friendships, learning, feelings, and experiences.

The attached resource shares ten simple questions that can help spark genuine conversations with your child. Whether you're driving in the car, walking together, or sharing an activity, these prompts encourage connection without feeling like an interview.

Building strong relationships doesn't require long conversations every day. Sometimes, one well-timed question and a willingness to listen can make all the difference. We encourage families to give one or two of these questions a try this week and enjoy the opportunity to learn a little more about your child's world.

This resource states it working for boys especially, however all children will benefit from the relationship building that occurs from asking these questions and listening to their responses.
