Empowering students with essential skills

At Organising Students, we offer workshops tailored to support students at various stages of their education. Our practical strategies enhance organisational, time management, and study skills, helping students excel academically and personally.

Partnering with schools and communities, we ensure our programs are relevant and impactful. Here are some of our workshops:

Helping Families Support Learning and Independence at Home

We also offer practical and informative parent workshops to complement student learning. These sessions can be delivered to specific year levels or to the broader school community.

Topics include:

  • Supporting your child’s executive function development at home

  • Fostering independence, self-advocacy, and motivation

  • Encouraging routines, time management, and organisation

  • Understanding the challenges of secondary school and how to help

Parent workshops can be run as stand-alone events or alongside student sessions to strengthen the home-school partnership and ensure students are supported from all angles.

Don’t just take our word for it

"The study skills sessions facilitated by Amanda Lecaude at Organising Students strive to build up positive learner attitudes towards working hard, but smart, by using various study skills and techniques. There are significant benefits for not only the students, but subsequently, for teachers as well."

"Amanda has done a great job of pitching her workshops to the main things children are anxious, worried, or concerned about secondary school. The children felt comfortable sharing their questions and concerns about the transition to secondary school."
