Positive Behaviours for Learning (PBL)

At SFS, our school expectations are: 

Respect

Responsibility and 

Kindness

This week are focus is on RESPONSIBILITY, Transition quietly and in a timely manner. The children have focused in class on learning routines around what they need to do at the end of lunch breaks as they transition back to the classroom. We have had some children who do not respond to the music that signals to head back to class and continue to play. The children will continue to have a weekly PBL lesson to practice the social skill every Monday.

Here are some of our lucky Junior raffle winners from last year who have been showing our school expectations.

The count down has begun. Only 3 weeks to go. Tell your family and friends and make sure you have the date marked in your calendar! We have a variety of stalls and food trucks booked in this year with lots of great things to buy and yummy food to try. A great opportunity to do some Christmas shopping. Some of the stalls include children’s toys, jewellery, handmade goods, candles, homewares, hair accessories, plants and so much more!!!!!!

Lunchtime Games Club

In term 4, we will be having a lunchtime games club. This will run on Wednesday during 2nd lunch. All children are most welcome to come. We will play different games and practice using social skills like turn taking, using manners, being a good sport and conflict resolution. This will begin in week 4 of Term 4.
