About us

The creator and founder of Good Vibes for Kids is a highly experience Primary and Special Needs Educator with over 17 years experience.

“Being in the field of Primary School teaching for seventeen years I felt that there was a great need for the children of today to be taught these life transforming skills.”

Kerry was nominated for a Ruth Probert Award in 2003 for excellence in teaching when she had only just commenced her career. She has been responsible for increasing children’s Literacy Scores dramatically. So much so that 70% were in the top percentage of the state (in State LAN Testing). She has been teaching in the area of Special Education for the past 10 years and has a passion for positively altering children’s mindsets to positive ones, which see dramatic changes in not only school life for the children but also home life and life out in the community.

“I have come to realise that too many children are being labelled as being ‘naughty’. But, this often is not the case. They are either ‘bored’ or in most cases they have ‘very low self esteem’.”

Aspects of this program have been trialled at Saint Spyridon College, and there have been dramatic improvements in students which were once seen as ‘problematic’. They are now seen as extremely clever and highly capable students.

“This program is a must for parents who are seeking a way to motivate their
children.”.

It is really important that all children value themselves and think in a positive way, especially when it comes to their education and future.

It is important that the teacher who is teaching these life transforming skills acts as a positive role model, in order for the children to gain a fuller understanding on how important being positive is in their lives.

“We attract what we pay attention to, but oftentimes children (and adults) don’t realise that they are focusing on what they don’t want, rather than what they do want” (Teel, Patti)

“If children are to learn these positive life skills, they must be taught” (Gilbert, Janelle, 2002).

Why do the “Good Vibes for Kids” course?

Here are a few reasons why this course may be beneficial for you and your children:

It will help them develop their talents and experience less anxiety.

The children will grow with self-confidence and maintain a sense of perspective and positiveness throughout their lives.

They will look for good things in their daily experiences instead of focusing on negative.

They will have an increased chance of learning adequate motivational strategies and applying them in the classroom and their daily lives.

They will develop a more positive outlook on life.

The children will become more aware of the influence the media has on our society, e.g. television, video games

They will learn how to set goals for themselves and strive to achieve them!

We can not guarantee these will happen for all children as all children are so different and unique in their own way but it will definitely plant a positive seed which (with encouragement and consistency) will surely grow!
