Struggling to maintain momentum with study?

Dear VCE Students,

Remember to take a deep breath and trust in the hard work you’ve put in. It’s completely normal to feel a mix of excitement and anxiety, but know that you are more prepared than you realize.

Allow yourself to relax and take breaks when needed. It’s essential to maintain balance during this time. Exams are just one part of your journey. They don’t define your worth or your future. Trust in your abilities and the knowledge you’ve gained.

You’ve faced challenges before and emerged stronger; this is just another opportunity to showcase your resilience.

Believe in yourself, stay focused, and approach each exam with confidence.

You’ve got this!

P.S. schoolies is just around the corner!

Dear Year 12 Students,

As you approach your VCE exams, I want to take a moment to wish you all the best in your studies. This is a significant time in your life, and it’s natural to feel a mix of excitement and anxiety. Remember, while your marks and ATAR are important, they do not define who you are or what you can achieve in the future.

Your academic performance is just a snapshot of your abilities at one point in time. It doesn’t reflect your kindness, your creativity, your teamwork, or your passion for sports and other pursuits. These qualities are what truly shape your character and will guide you in your future endeavors.

Life is a journey filled with opportunities, and there are many paths to success. Whether you choose further education, vocational training, or enter the workforce, your worth is not determined by a single exam or score. Embrace the challenges ahead, but also remember to take care of yourselves and lean on your support networks.

Believe in your abilities, stay focused, and give it your best shot. No matter the outcome, you have so much to offer the world. Good luck, and remember to celebrate your achievements, big and small!

Warm wishes,

The Team at Progressive Psychology 💜

We can never have too many reminders about good self-care

In recent years, self-care has become a buzzword that is often paired with things like bubble baths, face masks, and scented candles.

Time to prepare everyone. That time is coming.

🧒 We’re committed to helping young Australians get ready for the social media delay.

That includes supporting parents, carers, and teachers to help their under-16s with information and practical guidance they can use to prepare.

We’ve launched a new suite of resources in our social media age restrictions hub, designed to empower under-16s and equip their support networks.

We developed these resources in collaboration with trusted partners including headspace, Kids Helpline Official, Beyond Blue, raisingchildren.net.au and ReachOut Australia.

They include:
⚙️ A dedicated online hub with tailored FAQs explaining what is happening, and how to prepare.
🏁 Practical guidance for parents and carers, including conversations starters and get-ready guides.
🍎 Information for educators on what the new restrictions mean for schools, and how to support students.
ℹ️ Youth-friendly content outlining what the new restrictions mean for young people, downloadable action plans and where to go for help and support.

Together, we’re making sure young people and their communities are informed, supported, and ready.
