We deliver Perth student wellbeing seminars, and our Western Australian list runs 23 schools deep, from Scotch College in Swanbourne to Kelmscott Senior High School.
On 16 October 2025, Glen Gerreyn spent a full day at Scotch College: Brilliant Young Mind with Year 11, then The Leadership Effect with Year 12. Pen and paper, no phones, a hall full of senior boys. Over the days that followed, 30 students emailed us, most with the work already started.
One Year 11 student wrote: “I entered your talk with my once-held dream of becoming an international human rights lawyer barely there, as I was filled with self-doubt. By the end of the session, I was excited and motivated for my future, my goals, and to actually chase that dream. Thank you for pushing me that one decimal place over, to believe that I can do it.”
Another had the plan built before the weekend: “Since your talk I have made a timetable that includes study, my part-time job, running twice a week, and gym 3 times a week. I am also setting goals that will help me get out of bed faster.”
Give a senior boy a plan he can picture, and he starts that night. Both seminars, and the feedback that followed, are in the case study. Read the Scotch College case study.
Glen has spent more than 25 years doing this in 750 schools across Australia, and Western Australia has been on the run sheet the whole way: the western suburbs, the northern corridor from Duncraig to Woodvale, and down through Applecross to Kelmscott. We book Perth trips in blocks, so one confirmed date often means 2 or 3 WA schools share the same week.
Schools often land here after searching for the best motivational speaker for schools. Glen wears the title comfortably, and the Scotch College emails above show what it looks like in practice.
What Our Perth Student Wellbeing Seminars Bring Into the Room
Hope is a skill. We name it, we teach it, and we give students the tools to practise it: grit, optimism, courage, and resilience. Our seminars are built for Years 7 to 12 and they’re delivered in person, because a screen can’t hold a room of teenagers the way a person in front of them can.
Every seminar is research-based and aligned with the Australian Student Wellbeing Framework, and built to fit the wellbeing program you already run. We don’t replace your work. We give your students and your staff a shared language to keep using long after we’ve packed up and flown home.
Perth Student Wellbeing Seminars You Can Book
Day of Hope. A cognitive reset for a full year level. Students leave with a plan on paper, not just a feeling.
Hope Express. A 70-minute seminar that shifts how students see their future. Built for Years 7 to 12.
Men of Honour. A character seminar for teenage boys, on what it means to grow into a man worth respecting. Also runs as our consent education for schools incursion.
Brilliant Young Mind. The study seminar that ran at Scotch College: focus, systems, and putting study back in the hands of the student in an age of digital distraction.
