Deputy Principal's Report

Dear Families,

As the week winds down, we want to take a moment to reflect on all the hard work, collaboration, and accomplishments we've shared. It's been a week full of progress, and your dedication has made all the difference.

Random Acts of Kindness

I would like to extend heartfelt congratulations to the following students for their exemplary display of kindness towards others. It's truly inspiring to witness students across different year levels supporting one another and making an effort to spread kindness. Your actions make our school community a better place for everyone.

Week 6

Grace F. (6BR), Isabella W. (6EL), Gracie D. (5JD), Kiera D. (5ID) and Ella D. (5ID) For being so kind and helpful and assisting teacer in the office

Maeva R. (PKA) For picking up rubbish during play time. Well done!

Oliver D. (2AH) For always helping his peers even when he hasn't been asked to

Double Kindness Award

Amelie R. (5JD) For her exceptional organisational skills and her kindness and willingness to help others

Illness

I'd like to emphasise the importance of keeping our school community safe and healthy. With the ongoing challenges posed by various illnesses, it's crucial that we all do our part to protect one another.

One of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of illness within our school is by ensuring that children who are unwell stay home until they are fully recovered. If your child is unwell, please keep them home. In the event of an absence, please notify the school office. 

Seasons for Growth 

​Seasons for Growth is designed for children who have experienced significant change, loss and grief in relation to family breakdown, separation, dislocation, divorce or death of a significant other. The Seasons for Growth Program consists of 8 sessions, 1 celebration session and follow up.

The sessions follow the cycle of the four seasons:

Autumn - Session 1 and 2 aim to support participants to come to terms with the reality of the loss. This season is identified by the colours orange and yellow indicating change.

Winter - Session 3 and 4 give participants the opportunity to learn about the emotions that accompany grief and how each has experienced these in their own loss. This season is identified by the colours blue and purple indicating cold and sad.

Spring - Session 5 and 6 aim to provide participants with the skills that will assist them to process their own grief. This season is identified by the colour green indicating new life.​Summer - Session 7 and 8 encourage participants to explore the ways of letting go and moving on. This season is identified by the colour red indicating flowers and good experiences.

Students who are part of the Seasons group have entered the 'Winter' segment of our program.

Best wishes to you and your families and wishing you all a wonderful weekend ahead!
