STARRTS (Service for the Treatment and Rehabilitation of Torture and Trauma Survivors)

STARTTS aims to help the survivors of trauma from war, violence, or human rights violations to start their new life in Australia. At our school, STARTTS runs the 'Sporting Linx' program, which utilises sport to develop capacity for leadership, resilience, and healthy lifestyle choices.

My Strengths

At St Johns Park High School, the 'My Strengths' program is presented to whole cohorts of students, and aims to build resilience, create a 'strengths mindset', build confidence, and allow students to develop response strategies for hardship, stress, bullying, and letdown.
