If activewear wasn't a big trend before lockdown - it certainly is now, and soon it'll be in vogue on the school ground. @maddieslattery tells us Kingswood College is about to swap its traditional uniform for compression wear to get students moving more. #9News

I’m wondering 🤔 What questions would you have students answer about online learning? Anything in particular...Time Management, Connections, Managing Stress, Healthy Home Lives, etc? #aussieED #MYEdOz #mschat #edchat #onlinelearning #digitalwellbeing @EduTweetOz

If we want young people to manage life’s transitions we need to let them manage their experiences, not protect them from them. @Pfagell @adolesuccess #adolextra #MYEdOz #mschat #edchat #aussieED – at Melbourne, Victoria
