Parent & Carer Hub
Welcome! You’ve arrived at this Parent & Carer Hub because your child’s school has invested in The Resilience Project’s wellbeing curriculum – and we’re pretty excited!
When supporting your children’s mental health, we know the best outcomes happen when we work together and practise.
That’s precisely where this hub comes in – to share the simple, evidence-based strategies being taught in the classroom so you can build on their impact at home. Don’t worry, we know a lot of this will be second nature to you, however if you’re interested to learn more and be inspired with additional ways to help your kids (and yourself) feel happier, we’ve got you covered.

Working on our emotional literacy gives us opportunities to develop our ability to understand and express different emotions.
When we improve our emotional literacy, we can work towards recognising our own feelings and our ability to manage them. This allows us to cope with different life situations, such as managing conflict, making friends, coping in difficult situations and being resilient when dealing with change.
