ECO WARRIORS
Our dedicated Eco Warriors have been busy educating our Primary students at this week assembly, about the importance of recycling and waste management. In their recent presentations, they explained the different bins around our school and how to use them correctly:
- Food Scraps Bin – For compostable waste to help reduce landfill and nourish our gardens.
- 10c Bottles & Cans – Recyclable containers that can be collected to support sustainability initiatives.
- General Waste – Items that can’t be recycled or composted.
- Paper & Cardboard – For recycling to give used materials a second life.
This is also a great reminder for home, using the correct bins is a small step that makes a big impact in protecting our environment!
If you’re in Years 3-6 and passionate about sustainability, join the Eco Warriors every Wednesday to be part of the change!
In this edition of SchoolTV - Friendship & Belonging
Learning how to make new friends and keep them involves a number of skills every young person needs to understand and develop. For some these skills will come very naturally, allowing them to easily move between different friendship groups, sharing their experiences and opening up to new people. For others, this can be much harder to navigate. Belonging to a group that is like-minded with similar interests is highly beneficial to a young person’s wellbeing. It gives them a sense of security helping them feel valued which in turn builds their confidence.
Positive friendships are an important part of the journey to adulthood. Adult carers can support their child or teenager by providing guidance in the many social and emotional skills required for a healthy relationship. This will help them to obtain, retain and maintain friendships. However, not all friendships are regarded as positive. Sometimes young people develop negative or toxic friendships. Therefore it is also important for them to learn how to identify, avoid or deal with such a friendship.
In this edition of SchoolTV, adult carers can learn how to support their young person’s friendship so that they experience a sense of belonging.
We hope you take time to reflect on the information offered in this edition of SchoolTV and we always welcome your feedback. If you have any concerns about your child, please contact the school counsellor for further information or seek medical or professional help.
