Building on the success of the last few years, we are excited to announce that our next Wellbeing Festival will be held on Thursday, 11th June 2026, and we will be returning to Dalby Forest.
This year’s festival is a day of opportunities & new experiences for secondary school girls in Years 7 to 9 who may be facing challenges with wellbeing, relationships, identity, or engaging in physical activity.
The festival is designed to boost confidence & provide a supportive, inclusive space where participants can feel valued. The design and feel of the wellbeing festival is been driven by youth voice workshops & feedback from schools across the county.
With a diverse range of activities, we aim to foster resilience, encourage teamwork, and create a sense of belonging, equipping students with mental wellbeing strategies that extend far beyond the day.
The Wellbeing Festival will feature as a minimum
- Free T-shirts for the colour course
- Protective eyewear
- A vibrant colour dry paint course
- An event and activity village
- Interactive workshops delivered by athlete mentors
- Inflatable obstacle Zone
- Mini team-building activities
- Talks, activities, and strategies focused on wellbeing
