How It Works

Here’s HOW your sponsorship works:

Ethical businesses and Community organisations such as Rotary and Lions Clubs can now join in this initiative as a by simply purchasing an A for Attitude book for every grade 3 student at their local school to become:

Silver Brand Partner: sponsor all grade 3 students at one school, or
Gold Brand Partner: sponsor all grade 3 students at ten or more schools

You’ll get your brand on this best selling book for just $10* each – the regular retail price is $24.95. (Greater savings exist for higher levels of sponsorship.) *+ P&H

N.B. some schools have composite classes where grade 2 and/or 4 students share a classroom with grade 3 students. In this case, we ask that your sponsorship covers every child in the composite class to allow teachers to discuss the book with all students.

We will:

Brand each copy with your business/organisation’s logo.
encourage schools to promote the program in school newsletter – goes to all parents and teachers
provide ongoing education and materials for teachers to assist them to use the book in class and remind students to access it when it goes home.

You can:

personalise the pro-forma letter to be given with books to let parents know about your business or community organisation and your reasons for sponsoring the books.
check with your local primary school to determine if they will invite you in to personally gift the books to each individual student.
call your local newspaper editor, or send a press release (pro-forma MR supplied) and let your wider community know about this project and how and why you have chosen to support it.

Here’s WHY it works:

Promoting your business or community organisation

This initiative paves the way for you to:

attract media attention for your gesture, which gives you an opportunity to inform the wider community about your organisation.
have direct access to parents and teachers who you can invite to visit your premises or utelise your service.
set up a lasting affiliation with children – future potential customers of your business.

Please note that we only partner with organisations who provide goods and/or services which support healthy lifestyles for children and the broader community.

Supporting your local students

This initiative supports children by:

teaching them valuable principles that have been used by millions of successful people for thousands of years;
using simple visuals to share information with children and their families, and
reminding them to value and love themselves and others.

Helping your local school

This initiative helps schools by:

providing a well tested, highly acclaimed and trusted resource that can be referred to in class by teachers;
addressing bullying and negative behaviours among students
affirming the benefits of community spirit when you visit your local school and gift these books to students (for no particular reason), and
building an ‘I Can’ community for Yr 3 students to continue throughout their remaining years at primary school and beyond.
