If adolescence isn’t hard enough to cope with, then surviving the final year of high school is certainly one of life’s major challenges.

All Saints, an independent high school in Perth Western Australia, is striving to give their final year students the key to success and survival by holding a one-day workshop before the start of first term. This is a new initiative and is being trialled this year.

The day will include lots of good information and advice to students on such things as study techniques, how to use memory effectively, and how to change negative thinking into positive thinking.

I have been invited to kick start the day with a keynote address, to motivate the kids, and I’m really looking forward to it.

I think the school is really concerned about helping their students get through their big year. I only wish this sort of thing had been around in my time! I could have done with better study techniques!
