2024: Surviving Year 12
Surviving Year 12 Out Now!
Book Your Parent Talk
The art of surviving and thriving in year 12 lies in the balance of work and play, pursuing physical as well as mental wellbeing and nurturing the inner self.
2020 research from Mission Australia suggests that school and study rank 2nd overall as the most stressful aspects of young people’s lives in Australia, and nowhere is this more prevalent than in Year 12.
Year 12s have high levels of depression, anxiety and suicidal ideation. Couple this with enormous parental anxiety and the media beat up, it all makes for a rough road.
Based on a lifetime of research into the wellbeing of teenagers, this talk gives practical advice and useful insights on how parents and students can survive Year 12.
This 90 minute talk is for Year 11 and 12 students and parents. It includes practical evidence based tips and strategies to reduce stress and increase productivity. It incorporates the latest research from around the world on the psychology of effective study techniques, how to manage sleep, social media, improve memory, how to avoid distractions, what foods to eat before exams, managing parents and so much more.
