This week is Wellbeing week. It’s amazing how fast the term goes when you are busy. Take the time to do something different with your family this week. It is a week to refresh together without the demands of written homework.

Please remember that this Friday is a Pupil Free day – September 3rd.

Father’s Day – Sept 5th

This weekend we celebrate and give thanks for fathers and father-like figures in our lives. Leading up to the weekend, take some time to reflect on the love and lessons your own fathers have given you and give thanks for their presence in your life.  We wish all Fathers a wonderful day on Sunday!

Next  week is Child Protection Week. We take the opportunity to reflect on the important role we play in keeping all children safe. We pray for the young victims of any form of harm, that they may be loved, cared for and supported on their life’s journey. Child Protection is everyone’s responsibility and we have a responsibility to teach our children how to be safe in a variety of circumstances. We do use the Daniel Morcombe program as a stimulus for teaching our children important lessons around personal safety. Together we can keep your children safe. Launched on Father’s Day every year, National Child Protection Week, supports and encourages the safety and wellbeing of Australian children and families. Promoting safe, positive and supportive relationships and interactions with others is an important part of this.

An ongoing message that is always promoted is that protecting children is everyone’s business and all Australians are urged to be involved.  More information can be found here: https://www.napcan.org.au/get-involved-2021/
