Supporting Students with the Bounce Program

Over the past eight weeks, nine of our year 7 and 8 students engaged in The Iron Armour Academy (IAA) BOUNCE PROGRAM.

Throughout this program our students received mentoring from Coach Kat and Coach Fantastic where they focused on developing tools to build their focus & resilience and improve in their leadership, communication & decision-making skills. All students engaged positively in the program, and we saw so much growth from session one through to our last session. Marshal and Alana have shared their thoughts on the program and have highlighted their key learnings.

Alana

I learnt how to journal and that writing down how you feel can have a positive impact. I also learnt that it is important to face your fears rather than running away from them. Coach Fantastic and Coach Kat taught us so much over the 8 weeks and I have taken lifelong lessons from Bounce.

Marshal

The Bounce program was an amazing experience. I learnt that it is important to always respect others and that sometimes you have to go through a painful stage in life in order to grow as a person.

We thank Iron Armour Academy, Coach Kat, and Coach Fantastic for their dedication and support in empowering our students to “bounce back” stronger than ever.
