Vivedus Named Finalist in the 2025 iAwards
We were proud to be named a finalist in the 2025 iAwards, Australia's longest-running innovation awards program sponsored by the Australian government. While we didn’t take home the trophy, being selected in our first year of operation is an incredible honour. To be recognised alongside former winners such as Atlassian and Google Maps is a testament to the quality and potential of what we’re building. It’s a strong signal that the education sector is ready for transformative change—and Vivedus is leading the way.
PLC Armidale Onboarded: Taking Learning Beyond
We’re thrilled to welcome PLC Armidale to the growing community of Vivedus schools. Their leadership and commitment to future-focused education is inspiring. One of the teachers shared:
“I am excited by the possibilities this platform can offer. I love the idea of incorporating more creativity opportunities for students in the classroom. With all the many, many, many other things that we need to do as teachers, it is often our creativity that loses the crucial time it needs to flourish, so this will be a great tool.”
Another commented on the quality of the onboarding experience:
“I was so impressed with the knowledge and professionalism on display. Gabrielle and Paul were fabulous presenters and clear communicators—an obvious passion was demonstrated. Thank you!”
We're deeply encouraged by this feedback and honoured to be supporting PLC Armidale in their journey to activate creative intelligence across their school.
Gabrielle Kempton Named One of Australia’s 50 Most Influential Educators
We’re delighted to share that Gabrielle Kempton, our Head of Research and Development, has been recognised by The Educator as one of the 50 Most Influential Educators in Australia for 2025.
Gabrielle’s three decades of service to education, her pioneering work on creativity theory, and her leadership in co-developing Australia’s first nationally recognised credential in Creative Intelligence, continue to shape schools nationwide—and soon, the world.
Her work at Vivedus is helping schools move beyond content delivery, supporting teachers to develop students’ capacity for original thinking, deep understanding, and innovation. It’s a well-deserved recognition for someone whose passion and intellect are changing the way we think about learning.
