Choosing a program

Which wellbeing programs are on the Victorian Schools Mental Health Menu?

The Victorian Schools Mental Health Menu is the Victorian Government's list of evidence-informed programs that schools can fund through the Mental Health Fund. Growing With Gratitude is listed on the Menu as a mental health and wellbeing prevention program for primary school students.

What that means for your school

  • Victorian government schools can use their Mental Health Fund allocation for programs on the Menu, including GWG.
  • GWG can be delivered online, face to face, or as a combination, and adapted to your school's needs.
  • Teachers get GWG HQ: ready-to-teach lessons, games, posters and AI planning tools in one login.

See GWG's listing on the Mental Health Menu on the Victorian Department of Education website.
