Being tidy has helped me a lot, it helps me stay focused, be responsible, and stay calm. When I’m organised, I don’t have to worry about extra stuff in my mind. Keeping things neat helps me relax and feel ready for anything. I want to share this message so other kids can feel calm and do their best too! Abdullah is a student at Barayip Primary School.

- 6:36Are you really okay? | Rose Baniya | TEDxTarneit YouthEvery child is human, and that means every child has emotions. Sometimes, kids are going through silent battles, feeling hurt, scared, or sad; but no one can see it. In this talk, I want to ask a simple question: Are you really okay? As children, we have the power to speak up, not just for ourselves, but for others too. We can help save children from these endless bits of devastation by being kind, listening, and standing up for what’s right. Together, we can make the world a safer and more caring place for every child. Rose is a student at Barayip Primary School.
