Snow Trip
What an amazing week we all had up at Mt Buller last week! Departing school on the Sunday, we spent five terrific days on the slopes, learning how to ski/board, manage our clothing and equipment, face challenges, bond with other students, create wonderful memories and of course throw a snow ball or two. We had a terrific group of 54 people who made the trip as incredible as it was. Please check out the blogsite (https://bps2018snowtrip.blogspot.com) for all our updates and photos.
A huge thank you is extended to all those involved in making this trip as successful as it was. We were lucky to have such a terrific team. More details on those involved can be found on the blogsite.
Congratulations Kiahna

Life Education
Next term, Harold and the Life Education team will be visiting the school between 22 October and 8 November, 2018. Class teachers will be sending out class dates and times.
Life Education delivers health and drug education through a unique mobile learning centre environment which provides students to develop strategies and practice the skills required to lead a healthy lifestyle.
Lessons are age appropriate and the children will be covering a wide range of health related topics, ranging from the human body and how it works, healthy eating and nutrition, medicines and drugs, bullying, resilience and social skills.
Healthy Harold, the much loved Life Education giraffe mascot is always a much anticipated element of the visit. The sessions are always fun, interactive and really extend and develop the children’s understanding of the topics covered. We will be further broadening these topics in class both prior to and after the visit with the student workbook which is included in the cost of the visit. It is important that your child attend this session.
As a charity, Life Education relies heavily on the generosity of local organisations to keep its fleet of mobile learning centres on the road delivering positive health and life messages to over 200,000 children in Victoria alone.
The cost for this incursion is included in your excursion levy.
There will be a parent information session running on Monday, 22 October, 8.45am – 9.15am. More information can be found here. Please print and complete the attendance slip at the bottom of the linked document to confirm your attendance.
