I must say that I was apprehensive about hosting the Leading from the Front workshop with the hosts virtually. The session exceeded my expectations- the students got a lot out of the workshop and are very inspired to action their ideas. Even though we thanked them as a group on the day, please pass on my heartfelt thanks to Cody and Dylan for making this session work on a screen, but they both did an exemplary job at it.

The incursion was great and we were grateful for all of the adjustments that were made to do this online. The students were happy with the day and felt engaged. We had some parent feedback saying that the children really enjoyed the activities and found it useful. We are going to go back and use the leadership booklets in our SEL lessons this term.
— Teacher- St Patrick's Kilmore, Victoria
On behalf of the Year 5 Teachers, we would like to thank you for an incredibly engaging and thought provoking session last Friday. Our children were able to make many connections about what was being said and we’ve been able to reiterate these ideas in our classrooms. We were concerned at first about the sessions being on Zoom however we feel that you facilitated these brilliantly. Thank you again for a wonderful leadership experience- we got a lot out of it as well as the children.
— Bianca Niutta & Belinda Zappia, Sacred Heart Primary School, Mildura

Details and pricing

The investment for this engaging and transformative workshop and included follow-up material is $15+GST/student (minimum investment of $1,125+GST/day). The workshop is run live and online by UPP with a whole cohort of students broken into smaller class groups. We recommend the use of the Google Meet platform for this specific workshop, however we will do our best to accomodate preferred platforms your school may have (eg Microsoft Teams / Zoom).

As we use a learning, action, reflection process throughout the sessions, the best venue for this workshop is to have class groups in their own classroom with the furniture pushed to the sides of the room. For the greatest impact, we recommend that classroom teachers are present and involved for the 3 sessions, as this assists in making the program more engaging but also has many benefits to the students and school moving forward.
