"The most acclaimed and powerful presentation ever to hit WA high schools"

Seen by over 30,000 students Everyday Hero utilises tear jerking and inspiring footage of Dick Hoyt and his handicapped son Ricky competing as a team in the Hawaiian Ironman. The presentation draws many points from the inspirational Team Hoyt story working on a premise that as humans we all have great intrinsic value.  Regardless of what circumstances come our way, nothing can change the fact that we all have infinite value and the opportunity to live an extraordinary life.  From this platform students are encouraged to see beyond physical appearance and to choose an inclusive attitude. The final catch phrase of Everyday Hero is that ‘everyday we have the opportunity to be a hero by the way we treat others.'

 

Over 100 glowing staff references are available from schools across W.A. "This is a must see presentation for every school."
