Recent research conducted by Monash University has reinforced the effectiveness of The Resilience Project in schools. Findings show that students who engage in TRP demonstrate higher levels of resilience, optimism, and overall life satisfaction. The research also indicates that the program enhances students ’ ability to cope with stress and emotional challenges, supporting the development of lifelong wellbeing habits. These findings validate our continued investment in TRP as a vital component of our wellbeing approach. To measure the impact of our work with TRP, students in Years 3 – 6 participated in the Resilience Youth Survey , which assessed students' levels of hope, resilience, and life satisfaction. Results indicated that approximately 50% of students are currently showing high levels of hope and resilience. While this is an encouraging result, it also highlights the importance of our continued focus on building wellbeing skills across the entire school community. Our work with TRP has reinforced that individuals with higher levels of hope and optimism tend to use more proactive and effective coping strategies. By embedding the regular teaching of these strategies into our weekly curriculum, we are helping students to build the emotional toolkit they need to thrive now and in the future. Moving forward, our goal is to extend this practice beyond structured lessons, encouraging both students and staff to apply these strategies consistently throughout their day - to - day experiences.
In a recent video celebrating our journey with TRP, students reflected on how the program has impacted them. Their voices speak volumes:
“ It has helped me to remember things that I am grateful for during my day. ” – Harry A, 6B
“ I have learnt about many emotions and how to manage them. ” – Sophia C, 6B
“ It has helped me manage stress in my body. ” – Haadi M, 4C
“ It has helped me use strategies when I feel emotions like anger. ” – Amelia V, 4C
These reflections show that the program is not only being understood but truly making a difference in the lives of our students. As we move through the remainder of 2025 and look ahead to 2026, we are excited to build upon our partnership with The Resilience Project. With consistent practice, community involvement, and a shared commitment to wellbeing, we are confident that our work will continue to build a resilient, hopeful and emotionally literate school community.
