In partnership with schools we deliver an interactive curriculum based program to Preschools, Primary and Secondary schools. Visiting over 710,000 children every year, we help children achieve the learning outcomes of the Australian Curriculum.

Definitely not a one-off intervention. Our program is designed to engage students from an early age and to be sequential; delivered year-on-year, building on learnings throughout preschool and primary school into secondary school.
Our program is delivered by a team of specially trained educators and classroom teachers who we support with a range of pre and post-visit resources. Our program is also available online.
Our program covers topics including; drugs and alcohol, personal safety, cybersafety, food and nutrition, physical activity, social and emotional wellbeing and the human body.
By working together with school communities, we are able to identify areas of greatest need and choose program content tailored to each school and stage group.
Healthy Harold has been visiting preschools and primary school with us for more than 40 years and there are no signs of him slowing down. He doesn't, however, accompany us into secondary schools though.
Our Mobile Learning Centres are iconic but not an essential part of the experience.
Our preschool program is delivered in your centre; allowing your students to feel comfortable while enjoying the program. While the vans are used in most primary schools, our pop-up classrooms have become increasingly popular due to their flexibility. The learning experience can also be replicated in your classrooms or shared learning space at your school resulting in less disruption to your day to day activities (this is the only delivery option currently available in VIC and WA)
After submitting a booking enquiry, our team will talk to you about the mode of delivery that will work best for you and your school.
Depending on the length of the modules booked, we suggest between 2 and 4 sessions per day.
The preschool and Kindergarten - Year 2 modules run for 60 minutes. The Year 3-6 modules run for 90 minutes.
This information will be made available. The scheduled educator will also provide 100 point identity check when they arrive at the school.
