Balancing Acts

Find out the ways this school is preparing students for the future.

We live in a world where adults have to be able to balance a number of competing demands. The need for young people to develop the skills to handle these demands is increasingly important, as is their ability to manage social, technological and academic pressures. Here’s how Australian International School Hong Kong (AISHK) is responding to these challenges.

Mindfulness matters

AISHK psychologist MEG JONES says the school places great emphasis on wellbeing, and tailors aspects of mindfulness to each age group, as part of ensuring students develop the ability to achieve balance in the face of major life stressors.
