What to Expect on the Day

We’ve designed this workshop around one of the most vital aspects of education: relationships. Throughout the day, we’ll guide you through a series of engaging activities, insightful discussions, and practical tools that will focus on:

Gaining a clearer understanding of what’s happening for adolescent boys today, and the key factors shaping their behaviour and wellbeing.
Recognising the importance of strong relationships as a preventative and protective factor in supporting boys’ wellbeing and development.
Learning practical strategies to build stronger relationships with the boys you work with.
Creating a realistic plan for next steps to apply in your school context.

You’ll work alongside educators from other schools and some of The Man Cave’s team. Together, we’ll share knowledge, stories, and experiences in what promises to be a fabulous experience.

Please note, to gain optimal outcomes for you and your school, we ask that at least 2 educators from your school attend.

Timing

Please arrive around 8:45am for a 9:00am sharp start to the workshop. The workshop will finish at 4:00pm.

Parking

Parking can be tricky around our area, so we recommend allowing extra time to find a spot. While our office has no parking, there are full-day options around Cliff and Lyle Streets (about a 7-minute walk away). Please let us know if you require any accessibility assistance.

Dress Code

This is a professional development day, but we want you to feel comfortable—think weekend clothes. You’ll be among like-minded colleagues in a relaxed, collaborative setting.

What to Bring

A journal or notebook for reflection and note-taking.
A water bottle.

Lunch options

If you feel like treating yourself, we’ve got some incredible local spots, including what we believe to be the best bakery in Melbourne, just across the street!

Please note, the price of this PD may differ to future PD's.
