Wellbeing & Engagement 

Junior School Council

Well done to our JSC members who organised a very successful fundraiser - Crazy Hair Day! We raised $615.65 for the Royal Children's Hospital. This money will help the RCH to conduct research, purchase equipment and deliver patient care programs. Thank you to everyone who donated to this worthy cause. 

 

URStrong

Our Year 3-5 students have been participating in the friendship program URStrong. The teachers and students love it so much that our Foundation teachers felt inspired to start the program with our youngest students this term. 

 

The skills-based program teaches children how to put a voice to their feelings, create healthy friendships, and build a solid foundation for future relationships. Along with learning what’s normal in a friendship and the difference between healthy and unhealthy friendships, students also learn and practice URSTRONG’s step-by-step approach for putting out common Friendship Fires (i.e. conflict) and how to combat Mean-on-Purpose behaviour like a ninja.

 

Eastland Display 

The Year 3 and 5 students have decorated URStrong themed posters which will be created into decals that will be placed on the tables in Town Square between Hunter and Barrel and Lavazzi. The actual posters will be framed and will make a portable gallery on easels that will be displayed in the centre.  Be sure to  visit Eastland and admire their work!
