Although our Teacher Seminars are designed with primary and secondary teachers in mind, the strategies and resources can be applied to any setting, including those working in early years education, learning support staff and other school inclusion staff.
If you’ve joined us before, you’ll recognise much of the content, but it can be a valuable refresher! Think of it as familiar ideas with fresh inspiration to help further embed wellbeing in your school culture and keep it front and centre in your teaching.
We understand that, but this isn’t just a one day event – it’s a long-term investment in student and staff wellbeing. Teachers leave inspired, equipped with evidence-based strategies to support wellbeing in every classroom and energised to model self-care and resilience. It supports professional learning requirements while giving teachers practical tools they can share with their colleagues to foster a positive culture where both staff and students can thrive.
We’re so lucky to partner with some incredible organisations working to support young people, their educators and their families across Australia. And we’re super excited to have a few of them join us at our Teacher Seminars this year.
Be sure to say hello to them at their stands throughout the day!

Our Teacher Seminar draws directly on strategies from our School Wellbeing Program, which has been shown to reduce depression and anxiety in students by 47% and 34% respectively, thanks to an independent study by Monash University. While this day is tailored for teachers, the approaches are grounded in research and real-world experience, giving you practical, evidence-based tools you can confidently bring into any classroom.
