PRIMARY PREVENTION PROGRAM

 

THE HERO WITHIN

 

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The Hero within is based on ‘The Hero’s Journey’, originally conceived by Joseph Campbell. The hero’s journey recognizes that within any life changing experience there are certain patterns, stages and archetypal characters. The Hero Within takes students on a journey to recognise the discover the superhero within them.

 

The Hero within encourages sharing students unique stories and perspectives, as a platform of self-awareness and cultivating deeper intsight. We believe that with self-awareness, and a langauge that can be used to articulate themselves; students are less likely to struggle with mental health challenges silently as they progress into their adolsence and adult lives.

and belief systems to pursue their dreams and develop an individual purpose in life.
