Overview of myHappymind

We are proud to be part of the myHappymind Family!

As a whole school program, from nursery to year 6, grounded in science and dedicated to building positive mental wellbeing, myHappymind helps children understand how their brains work and creates a culture that helps to build children’s resilience, confidence and self-esteem. myHappymind also teaches the children how to self-regulate and manage their emotions in stressful times, allowing them to be their very best selves!

Parent App

Below is the link to the Parent App introduction video that you might like to watch https://myhappymind.lpages.co/myhappymind-parent-app-introduction/

myHappymind has developed a set of resources for parents. These can be accessed online on your computer, or through the myHappymind app which can be downloaded on your device. The resources allow children to continue to practise some of the habits they have developed at school, such as Happy Breathing, and for you to learn more about what they are learning in the program. Also included are activities for you to do together at home, to complement the in-school lessons.

 

To access the materials, go to https://myhappymind.org/parent-resources and enter your name, email and authentication code. The authentication code must be kept within our school community and has been sent out via the school newsletter. If you need the code again, see the contact details below.
