Our new school partner in Singapore: Invictus International School

It’s an honour to partner with this world-class school nestled in the heart of Singapore. The name Invictus, meaning unconquered, is drawn from the powerful poem by William Ernest Henley — a perfect match for the spirit of the Get Happier program.

“I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.”

These words embody the core values we share: resilience, personal agency, and the belief that every child can shape their own future.

Shout-out to the amazing Invictus team!

  • Mr. Ciarán Cunningham-Watson
  • Ms. Tamsin Lancaster
  • Reception legend: Lucia Scrimizzi

Invictus International School is renowned for its holistic approach, offering high-quality education from Kindergarten through to Cambridge A Levels. It’s rich learning environment includes students from nearly every country! With an emphasis on lifelong learning, excellence, and character development, it’s a perfect home for the Get Happier program.

Singapore: Exceptional Schools and Pre schools

I was priveleged to be able to share with staff at Invictus School and Trehaus Pre School in Singapore. In a world where children need to learn the skills for wellbeing more that ever, parents and teachers  realise that children need to be deliberatly taught how to become responsible, independent and resilient. Thanks to these schools who recognise that mental health, pastoral care and classroom management are each a key part of the process!

How to Sustain a Wellbeing Program

Beaumont Hills Public School has been using the Get Happier Curriculum for some time. Staff who have moved on to other schools have introduced it to their new setting!

However, the movement of staff means that new arrivals need support to understand and apply the new curriculum.

Thanks to the visionary leadership, staff enjoy a one day PD to explore and understand the mindsets and psychology behind the program.

This school understands that without sustaining a school well-being culture, learning will be compromised!

Here are some of this great staff group!

Introducing the Get Happier curriculum: and Extending it!

Congratulations to the wonderful staff at Kurrajong Public School in the Blue Mountains of Australia. By introducing  the teacher training  in short sessions over 6 months, they have been able to understand and internalise the information and mindsets effectively. This is a school that is worth a visit: and especially to see how the program has been organised, integrated, digitised, and linked to the NSW curriculum. It makes the procees so much easier! Thanks to the dedicated and creative team at Kurrajong 🙂
