MRS CECALA
The Resilience Project
Throughout 2024, we will be working closely with The Resilience Project to support the wellbeing of our school community.
The Resilience Project delivers emotionally engaging programs and provides evidence-based, practical strategies to build resilience.
Our Partnership Program consists of online presentations and weekly lessons for students, professional development for staff, and Parent & Carer Hub (inc. digital presentations) for our parent and carer community.
Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing the Parent & Carer Hub with you. The videos are 5-10 minutes long and will walk through the key pillars of resilience: Gratitude, Empathy & Mindfulness. You’ll hear stories and be introduced to activities to show how these strategies can support our kids' learning and development, and also support you as parents and carers.
This program is an important part of our school’s effort to look after the mental health of our community.
View the first presentation of the series here:

Kylie Allen, author of Brave As Can Be.
Written by Inspiring Minds Studio Director – Kylie Allen and illustrated by Carmen Rocha, Brave As Can Be is a beautiful book about bravery.
Bravery isn’t about being fearless. It’s about something magical that happens inside of us to push through our fear, self doubt, and anxiety and to do the things that feel hard or frightening.
During challenging times that make us feel small, Brave As Can Be is a comforting celebration of everyday courage:
- Believing in ourselves,
- Speaking out,
- Trying new things,
- Asking for help, and
- Getting back up no matter how many times we may fall.
Friday 10th May: Year 5/6

Nationally Consistent Collection of Data (NCCD)
What is the Nationally Consistent Collection of Data?
Schools must now complete the Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD) every year. It counts the number of students who receive additional adjustments or “help” at school because of a disability. The NCCD helps governments plan for the needs of students with disability.
