Each November White Ribbon runs an educational campaign as part of our mission to reduce men's violence towards women. Today boys and young men are still being taught unhelpful messages about what it is to be ‘Real Men and we're asking you to Challenge those #Outdated ideas.

Today we have Andrew Joyce on the podcast! Andrew has a strong interest in relational pedagogical approaches, restorative practice and game-based learning. A great episode with a lot of takeways! #restorativepractice #edchatnz #education #edchat

Great to see such an awesome response to the campaign right across our sports community. So let's keep sharing the message with as many sport parents as we can and visit besportive.kiwi and our social channels for more helpful advice. #besportive #athletesvoicenz

When we’re in such close proximity to our kids for such an extended amount of time it’s important that we’re setting a good example to them, and creating a space where they feel safe. #OurHouseRules whiteribbon.org.nz
I'm attending Home Based Physical Education Summit.

We’re losing kids from sport because we ask them to specialise in one sport too early. This limits their skill development, the fun goes out of it – and they walk away.

Hear Alex Chiet from Sport NZ, @Kenmhockey from @usahockey, and Bill Wigglesworth from @HarbourRugby discuss the changes underway in New Zealand to get and keep more young people in sport.
Listen to the conversation on RNZ here.

For 2020:
In youth sport we must not just focus on the <1% of players who ‘might' make it at the cost of the >99% who could become lifelong participants.
It’s about fun, learning, enjoyment, socialising, engagement, legacy & the development of EVERY child -regardless of ability.

In 2020 you’re far more likely to coach a child who'll become a key club member/player/coach than you are a future elite performer
❎It is NOT just about performance, results or creating the next elites
✅It IS all about physical, social & personal development, retention & fun

Was amazing to work with Wellington College to bring the Youth Ambassador Leadership Project to the wider Wellington Region. 250 students and 30 schools. Amazing.

"It takes a lot to be vulnerable, because how people react to your vulnerability is going to allow you to do it"
