To our valued Second Step community,   As we open the door on the new year and look back on 2025, we have so much to celebrate — not only growth and engagement in our classrooms, but a significant step forward in partnership and reach. Because of your commitment, and with the generous support of Buildcorp Foundation and NSW DoE, we’ve significantly extended the reach and impact of social‑emotional learning (SEL) for students across Australia, and New Zealand.   A Landmark 202

This year during National Child Protection Week, NAPCAN invite us to turn words into actions. Second Step Early Learning now includes resources to help our littlest learners develop skills that help protect them from abuse.

R U OK? Day encourages people to stay connected through difficult times. Second Step equips students with the skills they need to connect, succeed and thrive.

In our final instalment for Book Week 2025, we're taking you on an a literary adventure in Bullying Prevention and showing you which books we love to share with children to support their ability to understand others' perspectives, be assertive and stand up for each other.
