KIDS IN THE KITCHEN - A CHPS Cookbook

We are so excited to finally share with you our very own Croydon Hills Primary School cookbook!  Filled with a variety of sweet and savoury recipes from our CHPS families, it is the perfect addition to all kitchens - and perfect timing right before school holidays! 

We have attached a free PDF version for you to download and start using straight away! 

Our wonderful CHAPS team are also making these available in hard copy form for those who would like to purchase one to raise money for our wonderful school!  These will be sold for $10 through the office.  You can order these through Compass and you will receive them early Term 3! 

Thank you to all families who contributed their favourite recipes - happy baking everyone!

Anxiety Workshop, Term 3

Helping your child manage anxious/worrying feelings

On any given week, Cheyenne and I come across children and young people who feel worried or anxious for a variety of reasons.  Although we can work alongside students to give them some ‘tools’ in their ‘backpack’ that they can use, we also know how much more valuable our intervention will be if it is reinforced at home by the people who spend more time with them than we do, their parents/guardians. 

For this reason Cheyenne and I are seeking expressions of interest from parents/guardians in relation to a workshop that we hope to facilitate around helping children manage anxious/worrying feelings.  We plan to offer this in early Term 3. 

If you are interested in attending a 2 hour session, can you please email Robyn -  miller.robyn.e@edumail.vic.gov.au to register and identify what day and general timeslot would suit you (morning, afternoon, or evening)?  Once we receive feedback from the CHPS community, we will promote the workshop/s via Compass and the Newsletter Wellbeing page. We hope to be able to partner with you and ultimately equip you to support your children as they navigate this area of their lives.
