Young Men’s / Women’s Mentoring Program

Targeted at at-risk students, including those returning from suspension, in Out of Home Care, or Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, this program focuses on closing the gap, boosting engagement, and supporting personal growth.

Former Deputy Principal & Head of Department for Wellbeing, Tim Duroux, facilitates sessions for 1-4 students. As Current Mentor Coach, he connects quickly with students creating a supportive atmosphere where participants feel free to share and get outside their comfort zone to achieve growth. The students engage in activities to support the Personal & Social Capabilities framework.

In the Young Men’s/Women’s Mentoring Program, some concepts covered are:

  • Identity / Values

  • Goalsetting

  • Building Habits

  • Helpful Thinking Strategies

  • Staying Calm

  • Dealing with Challenges

  • Growth Mindset

  • Self-Care

  • Building Confidence

  • Leadership

    With his experience, and in consultation with the school, Tim is able to build flexibility into the program to tailor to the needs of each student.
