SAFER INTERNET DAY- 7 FEBRUARY

Yesterday we recognised Safer Internet Day. In this online world we live in, it is crucial that our students are aware of being safe when on the internet. 

All parents want their children to be safe when learning and playing online. It is crucial that parents are aware of what their children are engaging in when on the internet. The following resource is a great support to help every family when they are online.

Online safety for every family 

MEET AND GREET

Thank you to parents/carers for their assistance in passing on important information about their children to classroom teachers by filling in the ‘Student Information’ note. The purpose of this is to provide a greater insight into the learning and well being needs of the children in our care. 

Teachers are looking forward to meeting parents and carers next week. If there are any matters that arise during the year about your child, please do not hesitate to contact the school.

ANNIVERSARY OF NATIONAL APOLOGY

Each year on the 13th February, Australians commemorate National Apology Day. This is the day we remember the apology that was made to the Stolen Generations, it is different to Sorry which is held annually on 26th May each year. 

The National Apology to the Stolen generations remains a significant turning point that displays the importance of historical acceptance in paving the road to reconciliation.National Apology Day is a Day to remember and pray for the children who were taken away from their families and homes.

We will have a special prayer to acknowledge this important day for our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander brothers and sisters.
