Project Rockit

We are excited to announce Project Rockit is coming to our school on 18th and 19th October. Project Rockit creates spaces where all young people have access to respect, acceptance, creative expression and real leadership skills. They send highly trained, passionate young presenters into schools to run workshops that empower students to lead positive change at school, online and beyond. Project Rockit realises that topics like bullying and cyberbullying are typically viewed as pretty cringey by school students. Our workshops are designed to break-down this stigma by injecting fun, participatory activities, and honest discussion facilitated by young presenters. We strive to build empathy, self-awareness and resilience by creating spaces where students can safely reflect on past behaviour, explore shared experience and find new ways to foster belonging.
