YourCrew Classroom is a teacher-led inquiry program designed for Stage 4 and 5 students, with a focus on encouraging self-care strategies and help-seeking behaviours.
The program provides a variety of resources to support teachers in delivering content and activities that allow student to practice, evaluate and implement strategies that improve wellbeing and resilience, ultimately contributing to positive mental health.
Each module includes a step-by-step teacher guide, downloadable learning slide deck and supporting printable worksheets, offering teachers a structured yet flexible approach.
Many activities within the program reference the YourCrew web App (a free resource developed by the Harrison Riedel Foundation), which enables students to apply what they've learned and continue their health and wellbeing journey beyond the classroom.
The program is divided into three interconnected modules designed to offer a holistic experience and learning in relationships, wellbeing and resilience. While the modules are intended to build upon one another, teachers can also explore individual activities in isolation to suit the specific needs of their students and complement existing school programs.
YourCrew Classroom is underpinned by the Positive Psychology theory. The purpose and design of this program is for students to have the opportunity to practice, evaluate and implement self-support strategies, therefore contributing to a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
The activities across our modules include a variety of evidence based approaches. These include: Mindfulness, Meditation, Growth Mindset, Gratitude Journaling and Self-Care strategies.
