12-Month social-emotional program

The Ultimate SEL Program for Schools

Empowering students for life through social-emotional learning.

Support your students’ journey into adulthood

Imagine if every young person could step into adulthood with confidence, resilience, and a clear sense of purpose. With AdventureWorks WA’ Into Adulthood Program, this becomes possible. Our unique curriculum targets social-emotional development in the classroom, helping teenagers better navigate life’s challenges through practical social-emotional learning (SEL).

Involving the whole school community, we create a school where students do more than just learn—they connect deeply with others, discover their true selves in inspiring natural settings, and grow into the adults they’re meant to be. Our program is designed to nurture personal growth at every turn, helping students build the skills that will serve them for a lifetime.

Guided by experienced mentors and supported by a caring community of peers, students gain insights and abilities that prepare them not just for academic success, but for a fulfilling life ahead.

Into Adulthood Program:

A 12-month social-emotional journey

Guiding students through their high school years, our exciting social and emotional learning (SEL) program does more than teach – it transforms.

Teachers reignite their passion for teaching, feeling excited and inspired by the meaningful impact they make every day. Parents, without the fear of judgment, feel supported and confident in their child’s development, knowing they’re gaining essential life skills. And students become empowered, agile thinkers, ready to approach life’s hurdles with determination and innovative problem-solving skills.

With a focus on Collaboration, Communication, Critical Thinking, and Creativity, we make SEL learning engaging, impactful, and truly life changing for teachers, parents, and young people alike.

"AdventureWorks’ professionalism and collaborative nature have seen us work together to develop a model that works especially for our College ... and our context. What initially began as a program for Year 9 students is now developing over several year groups to create a cohesive and continuous program. Adventure Works’ programs are practical and experiential, allowing students to learn and develop through discussion, real life experiences and reflection. Their facilitators are very well trained, and adept at talking to young people at their own level. They create atmospheres and environments that are safe and comfortable for students – both physically and emotionally. One of their biggest assets is their willingness to evaluate and discuss openly the process and programs they implement – they are constantly looking for ways to further improve and develop what are already amazing programs."
