TESTIMONIALS
Over the years we have had many positive comments.
Thank you so much for the work you did with Sarah, it is so lovely to witness her true sparkly personality emerge from under the cloud of self doubt and worry that seemed to blanket her last year.

My daughter practised an assertive message. She phoned her friend and delivered the message and had a positive response and came out of her room beaming with pride.

We have been delighted with the Optimistic Kids program.
Vicki Munt (Student Counsellor) and Robyn Collins (Learning Support Coordinator) Concordia College, SA.
I like the optimistic kids approach because it is based on good research and teaches kids ways of thinking that they can understand and use themselves. They also have an opportunity to listen to one another and put themselves in other kids' shoes. Thanks for having our kids in your OK course.

The Port Adelaide Football Club is serious about its community work and gaining positive outcomes from our community programs.
In many cases we will work in partnership with agencies who have specific expertise and add value to our programs.
The topic of mental health is a delicate one and we need to ensure that the messages delivered by players on resilience, positive thinking and mental strength are executed correctly.
It is for this reason that we are very fortunate to be partnered with Optimistic Kids who help us to deliver messages that are understood by players, staff, parents and children. Their approach is very effective, and we have received very favourable feedback from participants in the program.
