It's been lovely to see some of the things Junior School students have been getting up to this week.
This past week the students have been engaging in many areas of learning. It was great to see the Year 1 class learn more about local area history that relates to our College. This year we have not been able to go out for excursions but we are always trying to develop innovative and fun ways we can engage and learn. You will be able to read more in this edition of The Way.
I would like to also bring you an update on safe practices and sharing food. As part of our commitment to safe practices, we are now asking families to refrain from bringing in shared food for birthdays even if it is individually wrapped and portioned, including cupcakes or lolly bags.
Non-food based items can be used as alternatives, such as small gifts of stationery or toys. I encourage you to use this as an opportunity to spend time together being creative in finding alternatives for celebrating your child’s birthday with his/her friends.
It is also helpful to use this as an opportunity to teach your children about being responsible citizens during COVID times and the changes we all adapt to for the good of everyone, especially those more vulnerable in our community.
For the rest of the Term please do not bring in any food to share for birthdays so we can maintain safe practices at College.
Thank you for your support and encouragement for all that we do here at the College.
