THROUGH POSITIVE MENTORING & TRAINING WE HELP YOUR SCHOOL SHAPE SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE STUDENTS.
Take away some of the pressure of doing this alone, let us support your school!
How the Programs Work
AMAYDA will form an alliance with your school to deliver our bullying prevention and leadership training programs.
We do this by engaging students through role playing a range of potentially difficult situations and providing practical solutions. They will learn the best real-world self-defence and negotiation skills while we provide understanding and guidance around how to get the best outcome for them.
We teach all students how to;
- to have RESPECT for yourself and others;
- to have the COURAGE to do the right thing, even when you’re scared and to make the right decisions when subjected to peer pressure;
- to have the INTEGRITY to do what you say you’re going to do; and
- to build RESILIENCE, by strengthening their self-image, enabling students to recover quickly when faced with adversity.
All of these values combined are what we call –
AMAYDA EXCELLENCE

We form an alliance with you and your school
As much as you want to be everywhere to protect your child or help them through these challenges you can’t be.
This is the same situation with your school. Even the best schools will experience unreported bullying issues.
The AMAYDA program gives the power to the children by educating, mentoring and upskill your child on how to manage bully related issues.
Our programs also give children the courage to be socially responsible to make sure others aren’t engaging in bully related issues making them ambassadors for change!
Testimonials
I have wanted to write for some time, to highlight our appreciation of the AMAYDA program for the students here at Ferny Grove State High School.
John Schuh
Executive Principal
We believe that adding the program will help us further support students who may be disengaged or displaying significant behavioral issues, through a process of self-reflection and connection to others, enabling the young people to redirect their energy to more positive outcomes.

We support the goals of the AMAYDA Empowerment Program in taking a proactive stance in empowering our youth and changing the culture towards all forms of bullying.
