It was no different this week, with the Life Education van heading to St Joseph’s Primary School in Leeton.
Year groups pile into the van to hear from educators about making healthy choices when it comes to looking after themselves.
Depending on student ages, the sessions focus on drugs, alcohol and making safe decisions.
The program reaches over 640,000 children across all seven states in Australia, with over 100 mobile learning centres and 95 specially trained educators.
As part of each session, Life Education designs programs that are relevant to Australian children and young people every day, as well as their families and communities. It is now the largest non-government provider of drug and health education, operating in all states and territories.
The hands-on sessions allows students to be involved in the learning process, while at the same time discovering more about themselves.
