The Resilience Project
Throughout 2023, we will be working closely with The Resilience Project to support the wellbeing of our school community.
The Resilience Project delivers emotionally engaging programs and provides evidence-based, practical strategies to build resilience.
Our Partnership Program consists of online presentations and weekly lessons for students, professional development for staff, and Parent & Carer Hub (inc. digital presentations) for our parent and carer community.
Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing the Parent & Carer Hub with you. The videos are 5-10 minutes long and will walk through the key pillars of resilience: Gratitude, Empathy & 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.
View the first presentation of the series here:

We will be in touch fortnightly to share the remainder of the program, including research and wellbeing activities to integrate into day to day life.
Italian News
A journalist from the Italian Newspaper in Australia ‘Il Globo’ and ‘La Fiamma’ has written an article about Italian at Cheltenham East P.S. The article discusses the teaching approach used at our school and how students are taught with early language foundations and extended every year. Italian days at Cheltenham East vary with cultural activities including theatre companies, pasta making and gelati.
The second article discusses two bilingual students from our school Alessio and Dario and their parents Lisa and Andrea. The article is about how the family maintains their first language at home in addition to supporting and developing English language skills. We are very excited to be included in this article.
