Week 9 Leader In Me Events:
As these events are part of the Leader In Me Symposium
they can only be attended by conference participants. We
will host a community Leadership Day later in the year.
7 HABITS AT HOME
Habit 2 provides a good base for activities around goal setting. As a family (or with an individual child), choose an area that needs improvement. The area of improvement, or the broad goal, becomes your end in mind. Then think of specific steps that will lead to achieving this goal. For example, if the goal is to improve as a reader, specific steps may include reading a certain amount of time every day or working sev-eral times a week to improve oral fluency.
Congratulations to our Stars of the Week!
1E — Eva
For the wonderful effort you’ve put into learning the new song for Leadership Day! Well Done!
1M — Tabby
For Thinking Win-Win with her peers and putting her friends needs before her own.
1C — Issy For finishing her writing within the set time and
keeping it neat too!
1S — Joel For always trying his very best on each task and
being a helpful and respectful classmate.

Science Fact from Ms Ziogos While most people know that water boils at 100 °C (212 °F), this is
at the normal conditions of sea level. The boiling point of water
actually changes relative to the barometric pressure. For example,
water boils at just 68 °C (154 °F) on the top of Mount Everest while
water deep in the ocean near geothermal vents can remain in liq-
uid form at temperatures much higher than 100 °C (212 °F).
