At Little Life Warriors, we believe that just like a rainbow needs both sun and rain to shine, children need a mix of support and challenges to grow strong. That’s why we’re proud to be the licensed provider of the Standing Strong™ children’s wellness and resilience program in Bundaberg—a proven, evidence-based program designed to help kids thrive.
Why Resilience Matters
Resilience is more than just bouncing back from tough times—it’s about developing the confidence, skills, and mindset to navigate life’s ups and downs. In a world where kids face increasing pressures, resilience helps them:
✔ Build self-belief and a positive mindset
✔ Develop emotional awareness and healthy coping strategies
✔ Strengthen friendships and social skills
✔ Manage stress and anxiety in a safe, supportive way
✔ Feel empowered to face challenges with courage
What Makes Standing Strong™ Unique?
This program provides a fun, engaging, and uplifting environment where children learn through movement, discussion, and creative activities. It’s designed to boost confidence, resilience, and well-being, helping kids feel more capable in all aspects of life.
If you want to give your child the tools to stand strong, stay positive, and shine bright, book them into a Standing Strong™ session today!
Standing Strong is a multi-award winning health and wellbeing organisation providing uplifting and empowering wellbeing programs for young people aged 5-18yrs. Every Standing Strong program incorporates three core components of:
STRONG Body - Movement
STRONG Mind - Mindset
STRONG Heart - Mindfulness
Each session focuses on one of 40 topics available and includes practical, discussion based, written, creative and mindfulness activities.
“The dream for Standing Strong was to create a place where children could go to feel uplifted, inspired and supported, throughout the challenges and triumphs of growing up.
The first idea for Standing Strong came in 2000, after going through my own struggles as a teenager. A few months after graduating high school, a chance encounter with a young girl helped me realise I wasn’t the only one who was struggling.
That encounter ignited a dream to create a safe place where children could share their feelings without being judged. A place where they could let their guard down, feel heard and understood, while also being inspired to take charge of their lives.
Today, as a mum of two young boys, I see Standing Strong through my ‘Mumma Bear’ eyes. I understand the importance of having a place like Standing Strong for our children. My goal is to continue building Standing Strong as a support network and community of strength for families to lean on, throughout the life changing journey of raising children.”
