The Resilience Project           

We are really excited to be participating in the Resilience Project this year at St Augustines!  Over the coming weeks your children will be introduced to the Project which aims to teach students strategies to support positive mental health.

The Resilience Project delivers emotionally engaging programs and provides evidence-based, practical strategies to build resilience.

The Digital Program consists of online presentations and lessons for students, professional development for staff, and a video series for our parent and carer community. 

Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing the Parent and Carer Program with you. The videos are 5-10 minutes long and will walk through the key pillars of resilience: Gratitude, Empathy and Mindfulness. You’ll hear stories and be introduced to activities to show how these strategies can support our kids learning and development, and also support you as parents and carers. 

This program is an important part of our school’s effort to look after the mental health of our community.

We will be in touch weekly to share the remainder of the program, including research and wellbeing activities to integrate into day to day life.
