Junior School Council - World Ocean Day

The JSC are celebrating World Ocean Day this Term by organising a Fundraising/Dress Up Day on Thursday 23rd June. We would like everyone to bring along a gold coin and come to school dressed up in the colour blue or you could come dressed as a sea creature, a pirate, a mermaid or merman, it’s up to you. We can’t wait to see everyone in their World Ocean Day costumes.

We will also be running a Poster Competition during the week as well. We are asking students to create a fabulous poster that teaches people about caring for our oceans and sea creatures. The JSC will then judge the winners for the Junior, Middle and Senior School and a small prize will be awarded.

We look forward to having a fun time as well as a chance to learn more about our waterways and what we can all do to help look after them. All money raised will go to the Dolphin Research Institute.

Thanks The JSC Team

The Resilience Project

This next presentation from The Resilience Project is all about Empathy and Kindness.

Empathy is our ability to put ourselves in the shoes of others to feel and see what they do. We practice this through being kind and compassionate towards other people.

Brain imaging data shows that being kind to others registers in the brain as more like eating chocolate than like fulfilling an obligation to do what’s right (e.g., eating brussel sprouts)!

Research shows that practicing empathy, such as performing acts of kindness, taps into our brain’s ‘mirror neurons’, builds compassion and our behaviour becomes more social and community-based.

Part 3 - Empathy: https://theresilienceproject.com.au/2023-parent-carer-hub-inspire-hugh/

Here’s an activity to practise empathy and kindness:

Reflect on someone in your life who could benefit from an act of kindness today. It could be a friend who would love some affirmation about their work, your pet who deserves an extra treat, or a family member who would love a phone call or text message.
Make a plan for who you are going to give an act of kindness to, and what you are going to do.
If you want to add accountability to your plan, share it with someone else and encourage them to do the same thing.
Follow up with each other in a few days time, to ask how it went!
