Sleep for Optimal Performance

Supplement Talk

If you book into our "Sleep for Optimal Performance" Session, we will also offer to come out to your school to give a brief 15-20 minute talk to parents and teachers.

Topics include:

• How much sleep does an adolescent need

• Circadian phases

• Practical tips for ensuring the best night's sleep for your teenager

This program aims to educate students on how to optimize their learning ability through good quality sleep, specifically tailored for the studying teenager!

Key Topics Covered

• How normal, teenage sleep differs from adults

• The different aspects of sleep which affect our memory,

thinking, comprehension and recall

• Constructive tips for optimizing sleep for best study

• Consequences of sleep deprivation

The program will be delivered by an experienced sleep technician with a

PowerPoint presentation and runs for approximately one hour.

The Epworth Sleep Centre considers this program to be a Community

Education Service and is therefore subsidised to ensure equitability

and access for all Melbourne schools and students.
