Asthma Puffers and Spacers

E. Smith

Could all students who need an asthma puffer and spacer please make sure they have one at school. We have noticed that students often do not have their puffers.  With the constant change in weather they are requiring them more often especially when participating in PE.

Congratulations to Zhoe Willison in Year 7, who won Reserve Champion Junior Rider (Under 12 Years) at the Barastoc Show Horse Championships held on the weekend, at the Werribee Park National Equestrian Centre.

Mathematics News

Duane Ebbels - Mathematics Coordinator

Many mathematics teachers have relayed concerns to me that some students do not have a calculator.  A calculator is required for all students from Year 7-10.  Students will not be able to complete all the necessary coursework without one.  Calculators are available at the school main office for $20.

Arena Jackets

New orders in almost every size have arrived.  If you have been waiting to purchase a school uniform jacket the cost is $80.

Doctors in Secondary Schools Program Has Reopened.

The program is available for all secondary students to access free (bulk-billed) confidential health care at school. This is a fantastic service which students can access for any of their health care needs including asthma/anaphylaxis plans, immunisations, mental health care and any other medical concerns no matter how big or small.

The rooms will be open every Wednesday during the school term from 9am–1pm. Students can make appointments by contacting Yvonne in the general office or they can ask a teacher or wellbeing staff member to make the appointment for them – the only details required to make an appointment will be the student’s name and date of birth.

Parents are welcome to attend appointments with students if the student
