Wellbeing & Mindfulness 

Monique Driscoll

Wellbeing Team 

Kingswood Primary School is participating in VicHealth’s walk to school month. VicHealth encourages all primary school children to walk, ride or scoot to and from school throughout October, to help them get the 60 minutes of physical activity they need each day.

If you can’t walk all the way, you and your child can still get involved by simply driving part way and walk, ride or scoot the rest!

Your child’s teacher will record how many times the students walk to and from school during October using a classroom calendar.

It begins on the first day of school in Term 4. 

Buddy Run 

On Sunday October 21st step up and say no to bullying at the first ever Buddy Run – the Anti-Bullying Fun Run – at Alexandra Gardens in Melbourne… all families are invited!

The kid-friendly, parent-friendly, cousin-friendly, aunty-and-uncle friendly and grandparent-friendly 1km course means the ENTIRE family can participate together and enjoy a great day out, full of activities for everyone.

The length of the run means all children can compete – and the course is also wheelchair and pram-friendly.

Next to the running course on the day is the Event Village, where there will be heaps of fun entertainment and activities for the whole family, making it a great day out for everyone.

It’s a great way for kids to participate, to learn the importance of raising funds, all while having FUN with their family.
