A Word with Whitney

School Counsellor 

Term 4 is upon us and as the end of the year draws closer, there’s a buzz in air as the excitement builds!  As the year winds down, it’s important to make a strong finish and recognise the huge efforts of both students and staff, in making it through to the end of the year.

 

Here are a few tips that will help us to all get through 😊

  • Try and stick with regular routines as much as possible.  
  • Focus on the small wins/challenges that have been overcome this year and celebrate the positives
  • Take time to release energy and enjoy the fresh air
  • Your child might be already thinking ahead to the 2023 school year which may bring about some worry and uneasy feelings.  Take time to listen to how your child is feeling, reassuring them that these feelings are all normal.

Give thanks and show kindness to those around you. One kind word can change someone’s entire day.
