Positive Education
“Well-being cannot exist just in your own head. Well-being is a combination of feeling good as well as actually having meaningful, good relationships and accomplishment… Positive thinking is the notion that if you think good thoughts, things will work out well.” – Martin Seligman
Positive Education recognises that students with high levels of wellness are better able to flourish and reach their potential. This philosophy embedded into our teaching practice blends academic learning with the science of Positive Psychology and helps students identify, and build, their strengths, as well as equipping them with the skills they need to become the best version of themselves.
Embedding Positive Education as a core subject, across Year 7 and 8 and throughout teacher practice, prepares students with life skills such as displaying grit, showing resilience, having a growth mindset and using mindfulness. It also encourages positive relationships, emotions and a healthy lifestyle to inspire passionate, positive and curious learners at Forest Hill College.
GREAT students,
GREAT staff,
GREAT community
