About our client

At Life Ed, we believe every child deserves to thrive. Equitable access to health education is important to us. That is why we are striving to reach more children across Australia every year, via our mobile learning centres (vans), pop-up classrooms, in-class delivery and via virtual and online lessons.

We know that the biggest impact happens early in childhood and that children learn their core values at a young age. Tackling tomorrow’s issues today leads to solutions to some of our biggest problems, such as chronic disease and mental ill health.

We teach children and young people aged 3-13 the health, safety and well-being skills to make better decisions throughout their lives, creating a holistic impact on their long-term health.

We also believe education should be backed by evidence. Our health, safety and wellbeing program aligns with the Australian curriculum and key frameworks. It is also independently verified by external research and continuously tested on the ground by 120+ education specialists.
