Mental wellbeing programme – practical tools for the pressure years

Our tamariki (children) need guidance, encouragement and confidence.  Through our mental wellbeing programme designed for Years 5 – 8 students we bring expert educators into the classroom to deliver free, engaging mental wellbeing lessons to build confidence and resilience – saving teachers valuable time while supporting student wellbeing.

How the programme works & why choose us:

 

 Specialist facilitators

 Our trained Community Educators will deliver six interactive 60-minute sessions to students in Year 5-8.

 

 Curriculum led and aligned

 We developed the programme in partnership with CORE Education, using best practice content and teaching methods.

 

 Nationwide programme

 Working with teachers, our Community Educators visit schools across the motu (country), teaching children important life skills.

 

 Free programme 

There is no cost to this programme. Our mission is to improve the wellbeing and resilience of young New Zealanders, so we are happy to share our mahi for the good of all.  

 

 Trusted for 140+ Years

 Hato Hone St John has been trusted by Aotearoa for over 140 years, teaching skills that build confidence and make this programme the right choice for supporting tamariki.

 

 Right there in the classroom

 Unlike other mental wellbeing programmes, our educators deliver this programme directly to tamariki at school, embedding support over a 6 week period throughout the term.
