Empowering Students to Make, Mind and Manage their Friendships & Connections
Friendship Fitness is on a mission to positively impact every student by raising the quality of their friendships and connections, because we believe that the quality of our lives is connected to the quality of our relationships.
Who’s it for?
These workshops are designed for students in Years One to Four and are delivered in person to individual classes, ensuring every student is actively engaged. To extend the learning beyond the session, follow-up lessons are provided, offering schools practical resources to continue building on the workshop experience.
Our Difference
Authentic & Engaging
We believe that the quality of our lives is deeply influenced by the quality of our relationships. Our programs bring self-awareness and friendship into focus—teaching students how to make, mind, and manage relationships as an engaging and practical part of school life. Through our proven Learn, Act, Reflect process, we combine active participation with real, relatable content that students truly understand and connect with.
Designed & Delivered
We deliver active, engaging workshops that use simple language and hands-on activities students can easily understand. Designed by teachers, for teachers, our programs bring key elements of the Australian Curriculum to life in a way that's practical and relatable. With experience working with over 400,000 students across Australia and Ireland, the Friendship Fitness team is highly trained and skilled in delivering meaningful, impactful workshops that resonate with students.
Has a Lasting Impact
We want the impact to extend beyond the workshop. That’s why we’re developing online follow-up lessons—created by educators as valuable resources for schools. These lessons can be used as stand-alone sessions or as follow-ups, reinforcing key elements of the Australian Curriculum through a practical, engaging, and easy-to-use platform.
The online Sieries
Each school also gains access to our online series as a follow-up to the in-person workshop — designed to reinforce key messages and sustain momentum after the day.
The online series can also be accessed as a standalone program, offering schools a flexible way to build connection, character, and friendship skills throughout the year.
These short, engaging lessons help students practise and strengthen the skills needed to make, mind, and manage friendships, while giving teachers simple tools to keep the conversation alive and the learning ongoing.
We also provide printable posters to make each lesson visible in classrooms and common areas, helping the language of connection and character become part of everyday school life.
