Semester 1 Reports
These will be sent home early this week. We have
changed the format in an effort to provide a better
snapshot of your child’s progress. If the teacher feels
an interview with parents is needed they will indicate
with a “red dot” on the report. Don’t panic, this just
means some discussion may help support your child.
An interview at a mutually convenient time can be
requested by parents anytime during the year.
After school circus has re-started from this week.

CRUNH n SIP
Crunch & Sip is a set break every day.
Please ensure your child has fresh
fruit or vegetables (cut ready) to eat
each day during this time.
Selecting delicious fresh produce
Here are some tips on choosing the best
fresh fruit and vegetables for taste and
storage:
select fruit and vegetables that
feel firm, smell nice and look
fresh
small or medium size fruit make
good choices for children
choose vegetables that snap
rather than bend
avoid any fruit or vegetables that
are limp, split or feel spongy.

The Canteen operates on a volunteer basis under
Managers Maree Papworth & Julie Power.
More volunteers are always sought. If you can spare
any time to help in the canteen just contact Maree or
Julie on 63 741 060. You can also just walk in and
make yourself known at any time.

Helpfulness
What is Helpfulness?
Helpfulness is being of service.
It is doing useful things for
people, such as things they
cannot do for themselves,
something they do not have time
to do, or just little things that
make life easier. It is important
to be helpful to ourselves too, by
taking care of our bodies. There are
times when we need help from others. That is a good
time to ask for help.
Why Practice It?
We all need help sometimes. We need people to teach
us, and people to give us their strength or ideas.
Sometimes we just need a friend to talk to. If there
were no helpfulness, there would be no cooperation.
When we practice helpfulness we get more done. We
make each other’s lives easier.
How Do You Practice It?
When you are helpful, you care about others. You
don’t wait to be asked. You notice what needs to be
done and just do it. If you cannot figure out what
someone needs, ask them “How can I help?” or “What
do you need?” Remember to help yourself by eating
healthy foods, exercising and getting plenty of rest.
Remember to ask for help when you need it.
Affirmation
“I am helpful. I look for ways to be of service. I care
for others and myself. I look for helpful ways to make
a difference..”
