Can we use Growing With Gratitude alongside Bounce Back, Smiling Mind or another program?

Yes. GWG is designed to sit alongside the wellbeing approach your school already has. Many schools use it to add ready-to-teach daily practice, fresh material for teachers, or a stronger link to families, without replacing what already works.

Where GWG usually fits

  • Daily habits. Short activities on gratitude, kindness, empathy, service and positive reflection that slot into morning routines or transitions.
  • Teacher time. AI tools adapt any lesson's length, year level and focus, and build weekly and term plans, so wellbeing doesn't add to workload.
  • Beyond the classroom. A Parent Portal for families and resources for OSHC.
  • Relief days. A relief pack builder so wellbeing continues when the class teacher is away.

Try it alongside what you have

Start with a free teacher account and use GWG lessons next to your current program for a term. School packages are quoted around what you already have in place.
