Enter the Wellbeing Zone

Welcome to the Wellbeing Zone. When you enter the zone, you will find a wealth of information about all the things happening in the Wellbeing space at Sunshine Heights PS as well as strategies, articles, book recommendations and events that will help build our dream and culture of Wellbeing throughout our school community, inside and outside of school, so that we can sail together through a universe of possibilities with all the emotional and social skills we need to thrive. 

Welcome Back to the Wellbeing Space

Dearest Sunny Heights families, 

I hope that the holidays served as a time to rejuvenate and carve memories. With various cultural celebrations happening over the break, it was the perfect time to soak up special moments with family and loved ones. 

My break certainly was replenishing. I got to celebrate my boy becoming a teen, spend some beautiful time with friends and family, and escape Melbourne for some much needed soul food out in the bush and by the beach. I even squeezed in a couple of books this break - Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert and Atlas of the Heart by Brene Brown. Amazing! 

Very much looking forward to continuing building our Wellbeing DREAM this term, after the epicness of the Know Yourself, Show Yourself, Grow Yourself Mental Health Festival. This term, we will be focusing on continuing our foray into developing school-wide social and emotional learning, building student wellbeing profiles, enhancing our parent and community partnerships and starting up our allied health student placements. 

With love, 

Francine
