STANMORE CUTTERS CARE

Stanmore Cutters Care is the Mackay Cutters’ flagship community program, dedicated to promoting healthy lifestyles, positive wellbeing and strong community connections across our region.

Delivered in partnership with Stanmore Resources, the program works with schools, junior rugby league clubs and community organisations to inspire young people through engaging, interactive sessions that encourage active lifestyles, resilience and teamwork.

Led by our Wellbeing Manager, Jack Morris, alongside available Mackay Cutters players, each session combines fun physical activity with important messages around health, wellbeing, respect and making positive choices. Delivered throughout the week during school hours and within the community, Stanmore Cutters Care aims to create a lasting impact both on and off the field.

OUR SESSIONS

The Stanmore Cutters Care program offers 10 engaging sessions to support student wellbeing, growth, and development. Schools can choose topics that best meet their students’ needs and goals. Our sessions align with the Australian Curriculum, the Student Learning and Wellbeing Framework, and the Cutters Wellbeing Pillars. Whether your focus is resilience, leadership, mental health, physical development, or social connections, students will take part in meaningful activities that inspire and encourage positive change.

Why it Matters:

Many children face challenges from poor nutrition and limited physical activity. This can affect learning and lead to long-term health issues. Schools are the ideal place to provide safe, active, and engaging opportunities to build healthy habits.

 

The Cutters Care program is adaptable to different learning environments. Sessions can take place outdoors with hands-on activities, indoors for discussion and reflection, or as a hybrid combining both approaches. Most sessions run for about 60 minutes and can be customised to your preference. For example, a Personal Identity session can include 30 minutes of discussion followed by 30 minutes of engaging outdoor activities.

Where possible, Cutters players participate in sessions to inspire students as relatable role models. Player availability may vary during school hours, but every session is supported by at least two Cutters staff members to ensure a high-quality and engaging experience for all students.
