Alice Springs - School of the Air
This is how many kids go to school in central Australia, where their nearest neighbour might live more than a hundred kilometres from their home, and it would be impossible to travel to a school from their home.
So, they go to the School of the Air via their internet connection. The School of the Air is located in Alice Springs.
Alice Springs - School Of The Air
We recently visited Alice Springs School of the Air to teach their students and staff how to reach their TRUE potential through the power of holistic educational neuro-science!
These workshops are a game changer for the future of education.
We offer workshops from K-12, plus for parents and teachers.
When the whole school community knows how student's brains work, learn and grow, their potential is limitless.

Hi! My name is Jacob and welcome to my YouTube channel! What once was a dream is slowly becoming reality as I continue my journey through life whilst maintaining a real passion for natural bodybuilding, health and fitness. I hope to motivate and inspire just one of you out there reading this to never give up on your dreams and more importantly, make those dreams BIG! We currently have our biggest asset on our side and that is TIME! But it's running out! The biggest regret you'll ever have is not what you tried and failed at today, but in 5, 10, 15 years time when you sit and look back thinking I COULD have done that, I COULD have been great.. That feeling will haunt you for the rest of your days. It's time to live!
Thank You to everyone for your support! We're all going to make it... :)
