The free virtual event is ideal for secondary schools*
*Primary schools are welcome to participate, however some of the mental health and suicide prevention content isn't age-appropriate for primary students, therefore we encourage primary schools to tailor the content to suit their audience. The event also works well for primary school staff and parent groups!
We provide school-specific resources including tips on how to talk about mental health in the classroom. You can track your school’s success with a unique ‘Community’ webpage showing the number of push-ups completed and funds raised.
Check out this Case Study from Dungog High School, NSW for an insight into how the event works in the school setting, as well as the impact it can have on students, teachers and the whole school community.
