Join us for a practical and honest conversation with Cobbitty Public School, a Life Skills Go partner since 2023, as they share how wellbeing has become part of their everyday culture.

Featuring Nikki Bonus and Peter Shearer, Assistant Principal (Years 3–6), this session will explore:

  • How Cobbitty Public School is using real-time wellbeing data to inform early intervention and targeted support
  • Practical strategies for embedding emotional literacy and consistent check-ins across classrooms and stages
  • How integration with School Bytes strengthens behaviour tracking, streamlines processes and improves visibility of student wellbeing trends
  • Ways to build teacher confidence and consistency when using digital tools to support proactive, preventative wellbeing practices
  • How Life Skills GO supports whole-school alignment with the School Excellence Framework – Wellbeing element and strategic attendance goals

Cobbitty’s strategic focus on student wellbeing and readiness to learn is not theoretical, it is embedded in how staff respond to students each day, reinforcing Safe, Respectful, Being a Learner expectations school-behaviour-plan.

This is a real-world case study of a growing public school building a sustainable wellbeing model that supports every student to be known, valued and cared for.

If you are looking to strengthen consistency, staff confidence and whole-school alignment around wellbeing — this session will give you practical insight you can apply immediately.
