The Y Schools Ipswich Push-Up Challenge

This June, Y Schools Ipswich will be taking part in The Push-Up Challenge to promote positive mental health, connection and wellbeing across our school community.

From 3–26 June, staff and young people across the campus will work together to complete push-ups and alternative movement challenges while learning more about mental health through daily facts, conversations and shared participation.

The Push-Up Challenge raises awareness around mental health and suicide prevention in Australia, using movement as a way to start important conversations, reduce stigma and encourage help-seeking. For our school community, this challenge is about creating connection, building resilience and showing young people that looking after mental wellbeing is just as important as physical health.

While fundraising is part of the wider challenge, our focus at Y Schools Ipswich is participation, awareness, teamwork and creating a supportive community where young people feel encouraged to talk, connect and support one another.

Supporting headspace

headspace is Australia’s National Youth Mental Health Foundation, providing early intervention mental health services for 12-25 year olds.

Each year, headspace helps thousands of young people access vital support through our headspace centres in over 175 communities across Australia, our online and phone counselling services, our vocational services, and our presence in schools.

The support headspace receives from the community helps us achieve our vision - that all young Australians are supported to be mentally healthy and engaged in their communities.
