The ACTIVATE program is designed to support students in developing key life skills, resilience, confidence, and personal growth. Through structured mentoring sessions, the program helps students navigate challenges, set and achieve meaningful goals, and develop a strong sense of self-awareness and accountability. By fostering positive relationships and encouraging self-reflection, mentors empower students to build confidence, improve their wellbeing, and develop the mindset needed to thrive both in and out of the classroom.

- Encourage positive behaviour, self-confidence, and a growth mindset.
- Work closely with school staff to align program goals with student needs.
- Provide feedback on student progress and suggest strategies for further development.
- Foster a safe and supportive space for students to express themselves.
We are looking for mentors who are passionate about student wellbeing and personal development. The ideal candidate will have:
