Week 6 - Try your Best

ALLIED HEALTH we have had the optometrist and Smile Squad dentists visiting to provide checks for our students. Nurse David is also here to provide health checks for our Foundation students.  

BREAKFAST CLUB pop by for some toast, fruit and milk on Monday’s, Wednesday’s and Friday’s. Remember to thank our lovely volunteers!

LEGO CLUB Year 4 students have signed up to operate a Lego Club in the Blue Carpet area. More details to come! We would love any spare lego pieces you may no longer be using.  If you have some to spare please drop into the Front Office.

BELLA is an integral member of the wellbeing team. The beginning of the term is a great time to review with students the expectations around engaging with Bella. It is particularly important students remember to be quiet when near her and pat her on the approved zones – chest, back or tummy.

ON-SITE PSYCHOLOGIST

We have private practitioner, psychologist Meaghan Morley, working out of our school one day a week on a Thursday.  We understand how difficult it is to get students to appointments out of school hours, and the long waiting lists people face. Thus, we feel very fortunate that we are able to offer you this service.  Meaghan completes a range of assessments including cognitive, behavioural and educational at a competitive cost. Prices start at $500. A copy of the fees available upon request.  If you would like more information, please speak with Luana Lane in the Student Support Office.

FUN IN THE YARD Year 5 Play Leaders and Helping Hub students are in the junior school courtyards each lunchtime offering an array of activities and games for them to participate in.
