General News & Reminders

Resilience Talk

Motivational speaker & mental health advocate, Luke S. Kennedy, will be presenting to our 3-6 students on Thursday 10th October.

He's one of the most sought after guest speakers in the country, and reports from all schools state that he leaves a huge impact on students and the school community. 

Topics covered in his student talk;

·  Bullying (self-bullying/Negative self-talk)

·  Mental Health - Self-Care

·  Resilience 

·  How to be yourself and stop worrying what other people think

As well as this, Luke will be holding a session for teachers, and then for the parents of our school on the evening of the 10th 6pm. This talk is for parents only, as Luke will be going deep into his story (he PG's his content for students during the day), and mental health advice.

 Luke's presentation isn't your typical Bad Guy Gone Good. Through 'on the edge of your seat' stories, Luke inspires deep, lasting change, and self-awareness, for a wide range of audiences, from large corporations, events, to primary schools and high schools.

 You will leave inspired, and with mental health strategies you can use for yourself and children. Luke shows how being labelled early on in life, turned him from being a normal happy kid with a good upbringing, but resulted in him becoming an obese thug, addicted to drugs and alcohol, and severely depressed and anxious. He then demonstrates how he turned it all around again to become extremely happy and successful. 

 You will leave with simple yet extremely effective take-home strategies to improve your connection with your kids, and also improve your own mental health.
