If you have not as yet checked out our well-being hub, please click this link (Mullum Primary School), or go to our website. There is a variety of information there regarding how to talk to your child about Covid-19, about looking after you and your child’s well-being, the benefits of focusing on kindness, gratitude and mindfulness and how to do this, along with activities your child can participate in whilst at home.
On our website and below I have included two links below regarding some events which are being held discussing you and your child’s well-being. These are facilitated by the Institute of Positive Education, whom are an extremely professional and well-resourced institute. They have introduced Positive Education to Australia and are now a world leader in the field running many professional seminars around the world. The information about this session is below.

Joke Books - Grade 3 & 4
Last term our Grade 3 and 4 students made joke books for the schools in the bushfire affected areas of Victoria. Last week I received a lovely email from the Principal of Cann River P-12 College, thanking our students for their efforts and he had published some of the jokes in their school newsletter.
