PEP Talk on Sexual Health and Consent - 26 August 2021

Discussing sexual health and consent with our children can be vexing not only for them but also for us as parents and guardians. With the current intense focus on consent, we can do with all the help we can get to make sure our children are well informed and safe.   

 

Elephant Ed is a leading sexuality education provider to hundreds of schools around Australia. They have run many workshops for Kilvington students. For the first time, they will align our student workshops with this important PEP Talk for parents and carers of Year 5 to Year 12 students.

 

The Elephant Ed presentation will include the following:

  • Statistics and the prevalence of sexual assault.
  • Legalities surrounding consent.
  • Avenues to seek help.
  • Strategies to start the conversation at home.

It will be held on Thursday 26 August 2021 from 7.00 to 8.00pm at the Kilvington  Sport Centre (dependent on COVID restrictions, this event may pivot to a webinar. We will keep you posted). Register here to attend.

Missing Quilt 

Andi Hernan is looking for a quilt which was lost/misplaced last year at the School after it was lent as a prop to a Theatre Studies group play. On the back is Andi's label called 'PatchAndi'. If anyone has seen this special item, could they please return it to Main Reception? Thank you.

Camps, Sports and Excursion Fund (CSEF) applications

In order to support schools and families during the COVID-19 restrictions, the Victorian Department of Education and Training (Vic DET) has extended the 2021 deadline for schools to submit Camps, Sports and Excursion Fund (CSEF) applications.

 

Previously, applications for 2021 closed on Friday 25 June 2021. Families are now able to submit applications until Friday 13 August 2021. Applications submitted prior to 13 August 2021 will also be included in the calculation of the Student Family Background 1 – CSEF element of the Victorian Government’s 2021 general recurrent funding for non-government schools through the Financial Assistance Model.  

 

Students who are eligible to receive CSEF through criteria other than a means-tested concession card are eligible if they meet the relevant criteria on any day in 2021 prior to 13 August.
