Did you know... One of the first signs of puberty is body odour?

Yep - those sweat glands kick into gear before most kids notice any physical changes. A great time to gently introduce deodorant and daily hygiene habits!

Tip for parents:
Start the convo with: "Have you noticed you're getting a bit sweatier after sport lately?"
It keeps things light and gives your child a chance to ask questions (or roll their eyes - which is also normal!)

🐦🐝 Term 1 was an incredible start to 2025 for The Chat Academy!

A huge thank you to the wonderful schools who welcomed us and helped launch our refreshed programs - your support has been invaluable as we introduced our new-look sessions.

We're so excited to continue the journey into Term 2, bringing even more curiosity, confidence and important conversations to classrooms across South Australia.

If you'd love to see The Chat Academy visit your private or independent school, a great first step is to reach out to your school leadership or wellbeing team and let them know!

We're booking for 2025 and would love to hear from you.✨
