NSW LAUNCH

Over recently years, Little Wings documented story after story of children going into remission, finally well enough to return to school, only to be exposed to harsh bullying due to the impact of their condition or treatment on their physical appears (scars, hair-loss, amputations, etc) or change in demeanour. As a result, the Soaring Towards Zero program was developed, A FREE resource for schools to implement with students in preparation for welcoming back a seriously ill child into the school community. The program aligns with the national curriculum and spreads the word of acceptance and kindness.

little wings vip flyer, cancer survivor, anti-bullying champion

This program was inspired by a young woman, Teagan, with lived experience of bullying. After years of debilitating treatments for cancer, Teagan was bullied on her return to school because she looked and sounded different. Here she shares her story & learnings on how to change the narrative for other students in the future. Josh Reynolds will be attending the Central West School Launches, engaging with students to facilitate an honest, safe space for students to learn, discuss and provide tools how they can help seriously ill children feel welcomed, included and safe when they return back to school after a traumatic health journey.
