Can we use Growing With Gratitude alongside The Resilience Project?

Yes. Many schools run Growing With Gratitude alongside another wellbeing program, including The Resilience Project. The two can work together: GWG gives teachers ready-to-teach classroom lessons, games and posters built on five habits of happiness (gratitude, kindness, empathy, service and positive reflection), so wellbeing becomes part of the everyday rhythm of the classroom.

What GWG HQ gives your teachers

  • A curriculum-aligned resource library. Ready-to-teach lessons, games and posters, from quick classroom moments to full sessions.
  • AI teaching and planning tools, including:
    • Lesson generator
    • Lesson adapter, to change any lesson's length, year level and focus in seconds
    • Language adapter
    • Weekly and term planners
    • Assessment generator
    • Relief pack builder, so wellbeing doesn't stop when the class teacher is away
    • Wellbeing Wizard, an AI planning assistant that creates lessons, activities and games around your class
    • And more
  • Smart Finder. Find the right resource for a moment, a theme or a year level instantly.
  • Daily check-ins. Collect whatever data you'd like to capture, private to you.
  • Your own library and team sharing. Adapt lessons, save them and share with colleagues, all from one login.
  • A Parent Portal, so families can continue the habits at home.
  • Resources for OSHC, so wellbeing carries through before and after school.
  • The World's Biggest Gratitude Lesson. An annual global wellbeing event your students can join with schools around the world.

If you've run the same program for a few years

Programs that have been in place for a while can start to feel familiar to students and staff. Some schools use GWG to add something new, re-energise wellbeing time, or give teachers fresh material for the year levels where engagement has dropped. Others choose to move across entirely. Either way, you don't need to decide straight away.
