Wellbeing

Dear Parents and Carers, 

We are excited to introduce The Stand-Up Project (SUP), to Eltham East. It is a valuable initiative designed to enhance our school’s efforts in fostering a safe, respectful and inclusive environment for all students. 

SUP takes a whole-school approach to reducing discrimination, harassment and bullying by bringing students, teachers, and parents together. One of the key features of this program is its peer-led approach, where selected students will take on leadership roles, guiding their peers to continue building respectful and supportive school culture.

We believe that involving students in this way helps them develop crucial life skills, including leadership, empathy, and teamwork. We would like to invite you to attend an upcoming information session with us, which will be held in the BER, on Thursday April 23 at 3:45pm. 

This session will be facilitated by The Stand-Up Project and Eltham East’s SUP leaders. We encourage parents and carers to attend to further develop your understanding of the SUP and their values, that can continue to be reinforced at home through ongoing conversations. 

Please RSVP to Naomi.Brabender@education.vic.gov.au by Wednesday April 22.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out, or feel free to review the SUP website at www.thestandupproject.com 

Regards, 

Naomi Brabender
