WELLBEING 

Last Thursday the Year 4 & 5 girls participated in a discussion with Sandy Darwin, a Registered Nurse/Midwife within the area of Reproductive Sexual Health and around autonomy of the female reproductive system and importance of looking out for each other. Tomorrow the Year 6 girls and Year 6 boys will be discussing puberty changes, anatomy & physiology of both male and female reproductive systems and reproduction with Sandy Darwin.

School holidays will be upon us soon (23rd June) and soon enough you will be hearing “I’m Bored’. And so begins the cycle of suggesting activities until something captures some interest–until, not long after, boredom strikes again.

The good news is that psychologists say boredom is good for children. It helps develop kids' creativity, imagination and discover their true interests.

Still, constantly hearing “I’m bored” is…well, tiring. 

So, what’s the solution?

Create an “I’m Bored” Jar–a fun, screen-free way for kids to entertain themselves with the power of their imaginations.
