Book Week Fun

It was so wonderful to see so many students and staff celebrating Book Week on Wednesday. The costumes were amazing, as were the smiles on students faces as they were parading around the basketball court. Thanks to all the students (and parents!) who put in time and effort into their costumes and made the day a fabulous celebration!

PosEd Parent Workshops

Last term we offered a workshop session to parents around our Positive Education model. During this session, parents worked with Edwina and Mel from the Maroondah Council and Positive Education Network to focus in on Gratitude, and how conversations and actions around gratitude can help build connections in families and communities. This term, we will be offering another parent workshop, and hopefully, two more next term. Keep your eyes open for information on this, coming soon! We would love to have as many parents as possible joining us for these fun, interactive and informative sessions. 

Sun Smart

Even though it feel like Summer is a long way off, it's worth reminding people of the school's SunSmart policy. From the 1st of September to the 30th of April, all students are required to wear a school approved hat. While the days may still be pretty chilly, it's only 4 weeks until we are back in hat season! As the days get warmer (hopefully!), it's a good time to remind students about how and when they need to apply sunscreen, and making sure that students have a small personal sunscreen in their bags. If you have any questions about being sun smart, you can find some really useful information here - https://www.sunsmart.com.au/
