YOU CAN DO IT

WITH Connie CONFIDENCE, Oscar ORGANISATION, Gabby GET ALONG, Pete PERSISTENCE and Ricky RESILIENCE

Welcome to the 2023 school year and the You Can Do It program which promotes the social-emotional well-being and achievement of all children.

The mission of the You Can Do It program is to strengthen the five social and emotional skills and values which all children need to manage their own learning and behaviour, including Confidence, Organisation, Getting Along, Persistence and Resilience. Developed by Professor Michael E Bernard, these are regarded as the “5 Keys” for success and happiness and emphasise the importance of teaching children different ways of thinking.

The main characters in the program who promote the 5 Keys are Connie Confidence, Oscar Organisation, Gabby Get Along, Pete Persistence and Ricky Resilience. The program is delivered through stories, puppetry, a variety of activities, along with fun and engaging songs.
