IMPACT SESSIONS by UPP
ENGAGING AND INTERACTIVE STUDENT WELLBEING AND LEADERSHIP SESSIONS
“Dynamic, powerful, engaging, relevant.”
IMPACT SESSIONS are engaging, interactive presentations delivered by UPP at your school, focusing on just one topic for a short session (between 45-90 minutes). Through our WELLBEING AND LEADERSHIP IMPACT SESSIONS, we bring to your school the best research from psychology, neuroscience and education, and combine it with pedagogy that engages young people and inspires action. This is ideal for schools who have a designated Pastoral / Wellbeing lesson, or for large groups (+200 students).

It was one of the most significant moments of the year. Empathy, consideration, social skills, emotional intelligence. I loved it! He was a character I could relate to.”

DETAILS
The IMPACT SESSIONS are highly engaging, relevant and interactive for students. They are delivered by Unleashing Personal Potential at your school (in your school hall, or similar), and can usually be tailored to fit in with your regular bell times. All of the IMPACT SESSIONS use a learning, action, reflection process to engage Secondary School students. Ideally, the staff who supervise the IMPACT SESSIONS are those who have a continued interest or responsibility for the wellbeing / learning / development of the cohort. Ideally, they will be the form / core teachers who will be delivering the follow-up material to the students.
Some schools opt for a WHOLE SCHOOL IMPACT DAY- this involves the UPP team running short IMPACT SESSIONS with multiple year levels on the same day. An accessible option for schools outside the Brisbane area.

PRAISE FOR UPP FROM STUDENTS
“I would have to say that Friday was one of the best days I have ever had at this school, as what I gained from the day, has completely changed my view of leadership and kindness, and will stay with me forever.” Year 11 Student
“There were a lot of people who enjoyed your presentation. A lot of the people learnt something new or you reminded them about something. In my case you reminded me about things that I had forgot about that helped me before. The thing that I enjoyed most was the jokes and the part where we did the activities with our partner. Overall, your presentation was great and I thank you for coming to my school and giving us the opportunity to learn the stuff you talked about.” - Lachlan, Year 7
“Thank you for the encouragement you both gave today. When my teacher first mentioned we had to go and watch two random people talk I didn't honestly care yet when I got there it was the best encouragement I've had all year.” - Year 10 Student
“The sessions helped me to visibly see how each student possesses different strengths and weaknesses, in which when we come together, we are able to rise as a group and be the best we all can possibly be.” Year 11 Student
“Thank you for taking the time to come out to our school and do this inspirational presentation for us. The things you have taught us will definitely be applied to my life as the stuff explored today will make a lot of people’s wellbeing better.

I enjoyed the presentation deeply. Thank you UPP.” - Danielle, year 12
