Join us for the Making of a Hoodie Podcast where we meet with unlikely connections from around the world and design a hoodie, that symbolises and encapsulates their journey, and becomes a garment that inspires us all to reach, drive and surge for a fairer world.
Hosted by Jack Manning Bancroft, the founder of AIME Mentoring, the podcast dives deep into our guests stories and and how that relates into the theme of the episode before jumping into the hoodie design lab to create a hoodie. The hoodies are made to order alongside the podcast and all the funds raised go back into the AIME program, helping marginalised kids reach educational parity and beyond and to fund the various projects spotlighted in each episode.

Coreen School
For this episode of The Making of a Hoodie Podcast: Schools, we’re travelling to Blacktown, to celebrate a school, and the staff and students who make it such a special place. Coreen School, Coreen is an Aboriginal word meaning 'the last of the hills'. Coreen School is a powerful example of a school committed to support their students in all their needs. The teachers are mentors who not only are there for their students' academic endeavours but also strive to create an environment that supports their wellbeing. How can kids get equal opportunities no matter their needs? The stories are about the teacher's approach to every kid with respect and their work to help the students build confidence for when they leave school, they leave without doubting themselves.
Join the staff & students as they design their school uniform hoodie and take us through their school story, embracing our shared history & their hopes for the future.
