Positive Schools Conference Fremantle May 2012

[WASHN Team]

Top Channel Ten newsreader and presenter Sandra Sully will host Day One of The Positive School’s Mental Health and Wellbeing conference in 2012. Sandra brings professionalism and integrity to the Day One Masterclass as four of Australia’s best speakers address the many issues of developing s*xuality from pre-primary to year twelve. From definitions of normality to acts of delinquency, from high heels on eight year olds to s*xting and promiscuity among teens, every classroom is affected.
As part of a line up of ten internationally acclaimed presenters, Day Two sees youth psychology expert and best selling author Michael Carr-Gregg take to the main stage. Other speakers include award winning Barnardos Mother of the year, Bernadette Black and Good Grief founders addressing the social and psychological impact of the nation’s fires and floods. Teachers need information that is relevant, grounded and real.

Delegates will also have the opportunity to choose from twelve interactive workshops on offer throughout the second day. Among the options available, KidsMatter, Mindmatters and Beyondblue will all unveil new, important material at each event.
This is the conference that helps staff become the best educators they can be. That helps create classroom communities where both wellbeing and learning objectives can be realistically and effectively achieved.
