Support Programs

Harmony Week is the celebration that recognises our diversity and brings together Australians from all different backgrounds.

It's about inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone.

Led by qualified Youth Workers and running over two terms, this program focuses on building the skills necessary for young males to navigate the teenage experience. 

Evidence-based, the program is designed to hold space for 14-17 year olds to talk about everything from relationships to alcohol, leadership to vaping, self-awareness to drugs, mental health to porn.

This transformative experience equips them with the skills to navigate complex social dynamics and build a strong, positive identity. Join us in empowering these young individuals to realise their potential and shape a healthy and safe future for themselves and their communities.

For a variety of reasons, a significant number of children come to school without having had breakfast or a substantially healthy breakfast. This is something they are not able to control and as a result these children are disadvantaged by hunger and poor nutrition. Not only does this affect their education, but it also affects their long-term health and wellbeing.

Our Breakfast Club is an inclusive opportunity available to all students to access a nutritious breakfast on a regular basis. Supports students to form the habit of eating healthy which prepares them to embark on a journey to a healthy future, experiencing the importance of good nutrition and diet.

Act Up

The focus of this program is to support young people develop interpersonal, problem solving, and conflict resolution skills through a play-based approach. Students will engage in activities designed provide opportunities for young people to develop skills which support connection and emotional regulation as protective factors for mental health. Each activity is designed to provide structure rather than subject. Students will bring their personalities into the room and be supported to navigate how their own personalities interact with other when attempting to work in the same space, all under the supervision of mental health practitioners.
