Term 1, Week 9

From the Heart; a Leadership Reflection

Celebrating Harmony Day 

Harmony Day is a powerful reminder of the strength that comes from embracing diversity and fostering inclusivity. It is a day to celebrate the many cultures that make up our community and to reflect on the importance of respect, belonging, and understanding.

Our students engaged in meaningful activities throughout the day last Friday. Through thoughtful discussions and group activities, they reflected on what it means to be inclusive, kind, and accepting of others. The connections formed during our buddy session at the end of the day reinforced the value of unity, reminding us that, regardless of our backgrounds, we all belong. It was heartwarming to witness students’ enthusiasm and deep appreciation for the diversity around them.

Thank you to our staff and students for embracing the spirit of Harmony Day with such enthusiasm and care. Let’s continue to celebrate and practise these values every day!

All students should now have their passports.  Thank you for your patience while they arrived.  I hope everyone has managed to log on to the portal and find some interesting things to learn.  Now might be a good time to explore what else is on the portal and find a learning destination to visit during the upcoming holiday break.

Here is an activity I found from the Australian Sports Museum on the portal that I thought was interesting.  Feel free to give this one a try and bring your booklet and evidence in for me see – 1 hour for each activity you do!

Cards for Charity Sale!

This term, our talented students in the Cards for Charity (CFC) after-school club have been working hard, using their creativity and dedication to make a difference. They have spent countless hours designing and crafting beautiful handmade cards, all in support of a great cause!

We are excited to announce that these heartfelt creations will be on sale on Tuesday and Wednesday, 8 & 9 April, during Recess in the Primary Forum. Each card is just $2, and every dollar raised will go directly to charity.

By purchasing a card, students not only support our students’ hard work but also contribute to a meaningful cause. So, come along, pick up a card (or a few!), and spread kindness while making a real impact.

Let’s show our support for our young changemakers and their incredible efforts!
