Students: The reports of bullying, drugs, depression even suicide are a
distressing thought for any parent and teacher, yet it happens all too
often. Developing a nation of high academic achievers is simply not enough;
we believe that nurturing self esteem, self belief and self confidence is a key
element in raising healthy individuals. We believe
- Emotional intelligence (EQ) is an ingredient that can no longer be
seen as secondary to formal qualifications
- True Colours is the only tool that provides workshops for parents,
teachers and students (K to 12). This community based approach
strongly supports the emotional upbringing of our children as all key influencers support the same methodology - Dedicating time to building a child’s internal health, internal
confidence and an internal belief system will have massive
ramifications to the future health of our society
- True Colours community approach is the key ingredient to the
success of the workshops, after all our children our greatly effected
by the adults that surround them, therefore it makes sense to include everyone involved
