It was a privilege to launch the new album, \’Songs for Travelling on the Open Roads\’ at the recent Glasser Australia conference on the Gold Coast. Bradley Smith, musician, author and founder of the recovery centre at Loyola Marymount University in LA launched the album  with a little help from some friends. A big thank you to everyone at the conference, and the many people who loved the introduction to these special songs.

Congratulations to a school that is so committed to the well-being of its staff and students! Having seen firsthand how effective the program can be in another school, the Kurrajong School will be begin to implement the program from the commencement of 2025.

Kurrajong Village is located in the upper reaches of the Hawkesbury River and the school is a key part of this dynamic community. The beautiful Waratah flower, the floral emblem of New South Wales is featured in the schools logo.

Diane Rivera and her team at Canon Exploratory School are the latest school to get their hands on the Get Happier Curriculum. Congratulations to a school that is committed to helping their students develop the skills for life long learning, and the skills for living their best life! We look forward to seeing the results of the creativity of teachers and students  🙂

At the recent ConnectED conference in the Hunter Valley, we were delighted to spend time with principals  from our Get Happier schools in the area. Mr Jes Zammit from Gorokan Public School leads a wonderful staff, adapting the images and ideas to build sustainable well-being practices right across the school. Thank you Jes for the great work you and your team are doing 🙂 This is a great school to visit.

The research presented by speakers at this conference made it abundantly clear that no school can operate effectively without an SEL program.

We have been singing these songs all week! Songs for Travelling on the Open Roads, composed by our music director, Kim Burns, are easy to play on guitar or ukulele, or you can join on the singalong videos with Kim!

This captivating set of seven singalong songs are key part of teaching the mindsets and skills for well-being for children in the Get Happier School program. However, any teacher or parent will find these songs incredibly valuable both in the classroom and at home.
