Hello! 

How are you? Feeling refreshed we hope. Over at APS HQ we are feeling suitably rested and ready to support our schools as we all journey through the new academic year together. Our aim is to make using the APS website and its huge bank of resources as easy and accessible as possible. Over the summer we set about making some improvements to our learning platform, including to the ‘search’ page to allow for easier navigation of our resources. You can now filter appropriate resources by class age group or your role of responsibility.

Amazing People Schools at EduTECH Melbourne

Our AU/NZ education team had an exhilarating couple of days at EduTECH in Melbourne, Australia in August. The team came away feeling energised by the amount of engagement and enthusiasm expressed for supporting our young people’s wellbeing, and helping them to be the best version of themselves. 

Congratulations to the winner of our 1 year free subscription to APS – Anna Bay Public School, New South Wales, Australia. We are delighted to have this great school as part of our Amazing network. 

Our brightly coloured stand was much admired by both teachers and fellow exhibitors and Einstein became quite the drawcard, with visitors lining up for a selfie! 

This EduTECH experience was the first opportunity in several years for educators in Australia to meet face to face with so many like minded individuals who truly are invested in the future of our young people.

If you’d like support in implementing character across your curriculum, just click here and one of our friendly team will arrange a 1:1 appointment to explain how we can help.

Until next term...
