About
the project

This project has us creating resources (games, reading, cooking activities) that families and children could undertake, to support their child’s development.

The project wants to see H.I.P.P.Y children graduate from the program with reading, writing and numeracy skills above the Australian average. The program:

  • encourages a love of learning;
  • increases the likelihood that children enjoy and do well at school;
  • promotes language, listening and concentration skills; and
  • builds children’s self-esteem and confidence in learning.
