Real Life Resilience Workshop
Our students had the absolute privilege of attending the Real Life Resilience ("Legless and Blind") workshop with Ben and Mike. Ben (who lost his sight overnight at 16) and Mike (who survived a major illness and amputations at 18) blew us all away with their incredible stories, humour, and energy. They showed our kids that no matter what life throws at you, you can always choose your perspective and bounce back.
Key lessons our students brought home:Control the Controllables: Focus energy on what you can change, not what you can't.It’s Okay to Ask: True strength is reaching out to your mates and support networks when times get tough.
True Resilience: It isn't about "acting tough"- it’s about being open, honest, and adaptable.We are so proud of how engaged, respectful, and inspired our students were. A massive thank you to Ben and Mike for giving our kids the ultimate toolkit for life's challenges!
