Beyond “How was school?”: Making space for better conversations at home

“How was school?” is an easy question to ask at the end of the day – and “fine” is often an equally easy answer to give. That does not mean children do not want to talk. Sometimes the timing, the question or the feeling of sitting down for a formal conversation can make it harder to know where to begin.

Connection starts with conversation: helping students build the skills to talk and listen

Treating conversation as a skill that can be prepared, practiced and strengthened gives schools another practical way to support connection and belonging without assuming every student begins with the same confidence or experience.

Principal, Roberston Public School

Being a Peer Support Leader in a primary school does give them a good foot into starting high school with a lot more confidence. [Participants that] would have been perhaps a little bit in the background have had the chance to come through and shine and find strength that they perhaps didn’t know they had.

Participant, Roberston Public School

My name’s Ruby and I’m in Year 3. Peer Support has made me feel confident because whenever I learn something new, I go straight home and practice it in my room.

Chris McKenzie

Year 10 Coordinator, Mamre Anglican School

The different skills in the Program that you get to learn are things like communication, understanding things like resilience, understanding how the machine of school works, and how I can fit in and use my abilities … and abilities I didn’t know I had, to be able to get through this thing called school.
