Education Support
Mentoring in Schools
At Alchemy Services, we understand that not every young person thrives in a traditional classroom environment. That’s why we partner with private schools across the Murraylands to provide individualised mentoring and support for students who may otherwise be disengaged or at risk of being sent home.
Our Role in the Classroom & at Student Camps / Day Trips
Our trained staff step into the school environment to:
-
Support Learning – helping students better understand their schoolwork and stay connected to their learning goals.
-
Provide Distractions for Success – redirecting students when they become restless, so the whole class can continue learning without disruption.
-
Facilitate Brain Breaks – offering movement, sensory, or calming activities that allow students to reset and return to learning with focus.
-
De-escalate Challenges – responding to early signs of distress and preventing potential issues before they escalate.
Building Student Resilience
Beyond classroom support, our mentors work with students to develop:
-
Resilience – building coping strategies to manage stress and setbacks.
-
Self-Worth – recognising their strengths and celebrating achievements.
-
Belonging – fostering meaningful connections so they feel valued within their school community.
This service can only be provided where approved by the school the student attends and may require negotiation.
