At Hillvue Public School, the Our Healthy Kids team were invited back this term to deliver an extended Stage 3 program, this time with a stronger focus on healthy hygiene and habits.
By creating space for honest conversations and running separate sessions for girls and boys, led by Jenaya and Dalton, students were able to open up, ask questions, and engage more confidently with the content.
Teachers reflected that it was fantastic to see the kids’ confidence shine through and students being ready to engage, listen and yarn about topics that matter.
It’s a powerful reminder: when we centre culture and create space for students to feel safe, they show up – and so does the learning.
