The aim of the session is to arm teachers with a set of tools to take with them, particularly to contact group/homeroom, to develop a connection with students that goes beyond the surface level relationships we develop in class. High school is a highly anxious time for many students and teachers, so I think it is very important that we, as teachers, are finding ways to make this process seem less daunting.

Jess and Hayley both work at Holy Spirit College and have been educators for close to six years. Both take pride in the fact that they create learning environments that are not only emphasising the importance of hard work and learning, but are also places that students feel comfortable to be themselves, and we would like to share some of those positive habits with other educators.
