Teenage Whirlwind

For Teachers & Principals

Teenage Whirlwind

Our students face severe challenges such as:

  • Depression
  • Loneliness
  • Bullying
  • Alcohol abuse
  • Disordered eating

These are the signals given by youth when they feel overwhelmed.

Safeguard not only vulnerable youth, but also all youth.

Be proactive by adopting a system-wide approach that involves everyone in the navigation of complex issues.

School Health Coordinator testimonial

"The Model speaks to young people about taking responsibility for their own health and well-being. The Wheel metaphor is practical and easily understood by any age and could be adapted to a wide range of learning styles. The student-friendly ideas can easily be integrated into curriculum and extra-curricular health promoting lessons and activities. It builds on all of the principles of health promotion."

Teacher testimonial

"Finally we have a framework into which all our work fits like a glove! The Wellness Resource has provided both philosophical and practical threads that logically and creatively tie together the many varied themes we develop in our program."

Counselor testimonial

"As a First Nations Counselor I have adopted the Wellness Wheel Model to address the diverse needs of my students. It encompasses all aspects of life and is not specific to any one culture or society. I not only encourage the students to use the Model, I use it in my own life as well."
