‘myHappymind’ is taught across the school. myHappymind teaches children how their brain works and supports them in developing positive skills and habits to be their very best selves!

Through a series of assemblies and lessons, the children are taught preventative habits that support positive mental health, resilience and self-esteem.

The myHappymind assemblies and lessons help the children to:

• Feel happier
• Know what to do when they feel worried or stressed
• Improve their focus and learn more
• Achieve more of the goals that they set for themselves
• Develop better relationships with friends and families
• Feel great about who they are and have positive self esteem

To further embed this learning, myHappymind has developed a set of resources for parents. These resources can be accessed online on your computer, or through an app on your phone. The resources allow children to continue to practise some of the habits they have developed at school, such as happy breathing, and for you to learn more about what they are learning in the program. Also included are activities for you to do together at home, to complement the in-school lessons.

We really encourage you to make use of this free content so that you can support your child in getting the best out of the curriculum. If you have any further questions, please speak to your child’s class teacher.
