This morning at assembly I spoke to the children about the number of lost items that we have in the office. Between tracksuit tops, jumpers and hats there is a large number of items in the lost property box. We also do have a number of other items of clothing other than school uniforms.
I have said to the children to place names on each item of clothing and also hats. I encourage all parents to please look through their children’s uniforms, hats, bags etc., and to please add names if they are not labelled.
We know that these items of clothing are rather expensive, hence, more so the reason to have names on them so that if lost, the item can be returned to the owner.
Thank you for your cooperation.
All parents and carers are reminded to please stick to the 10km/hour speed limit on the school grounds.
We also remind parents not to park in the areas that are for flow through traffic only. If you are unable to find a park, please delay your arrival to collect your child for 5 minutes until the traffic subsides a little.
If parking on the gravel area along the northern side of the oval, please allow enough room for others to open and close their doors so damage to people and cars does not occur.
Please be courteous to each other, we are one community.
Throughout this term most of our students will be involved in the Catholic Performing Arts Festival. The festival runs throughout this term at various venues. Please keep an eye open for notes from Mrs Leith/class teachers and newsletters informing you of where the children are performing.
On Tuesday of this week, we had Hugo E and Nicholas M (both Y4) represent our school at the Primary Piano Performance at Aquinas College.
We are so proud of the boy’s performances. They both received excellent and outstanding scores from the adjudicators. Congratulations boys!
Term Three Focus: Emotional Regulation
“Emotion regulation is the ability to understand and manage your behaviour and feelings in appropriate ways to meet situational demands. This encompasses resisting or controlling highly emotional reactions like frustration or excitement appropriately, calming emotions, adjusting to change, focusing on tasks, refocusing attention on a new task and controlling impulses.” – Child Development Clinic
During their class Wellbeing Dedicated Time, the students will be participating in a range of activities to develop their emotional regulation.
