Wellbeing Report 

Lost Property

This week we have been sorting through the lost property and have found a great deal of items are missing names. If families could help us out by making sure all uniform and out of uniform clothing that is worn to school have current names clearly marked. Your cooperation with this would be greatly appreciated as we have a huge amount of lost property to sort through each week and it certainly is challenging when there are no names attached.

Gift Giving Tree

It’s term 4 again and we are preparing for the Christmas Gift Giving tree. This will be set up in November. The Gift Giving Tree is an opportunity for families to be generous to families who struggle to find the money to buy gifts for their children at Christmas. We will let you know when the tree is ready but if you are keen to be involved early, feel free to pop a gift in to the wellbeing room earlier.

Breakfast Club

If your child is in need of breakfast before school please encourage them to stop by to pick up some food so there are no hungry tummies in the classrooms. Breakfast club runs on Monday and Wednesday mornings in the German/Cooking room from 8:15 – 8:45am. Students can enjoy a range of foods, including toast, cereal, canned spaghetti, small UHT milk packs, fruit cups and fresh fruit and warm Milo. We are very thankful to our lovely parents who help out with the preparation of food at breakfast club.

Food Pantry

The food pantry is open on Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons between 2:30 and 3:30pm. Please note the pantry will close early on Monday’s. We have a range of foods, including gluten and lactose free items and on Wednesday’s we have fresh carrots and fruit, apples/oranges/pears.

If you are in need of a pantry top up please stop by and pick something up. We also have food hampers available that parents and carers are free to access near the pantry. These boxes have a range of food staples and weigh 11.6kg, so please prepare for that if you intend on taking one home.
