From The Principal Week 4
Dear SCA Families,
I hope this message finds you well and thriving. At SCA, we are committed to supporting the holistic development of our students, not just academically but also emotionally and socially.
We're excited this year to introduce our new initiative, The Resilience Project, aimed at fostering resilience and emotional well-being among our students and families. In today's fast-paced world, resilience is an essential skill that empowers us to overcome challenges, bounce back from setbacks, and thrive in the face of adversity.
By participating in the Resilience Project, you and your family will have access to valuable resources, workshops, and activities designed to strengthen resilience and promote positive mental health. Together, we can create a supportive community where everyone feels empowered to navigate life's ups and downs with confidence and courage.
Please take the time to read the message, later in this newsletter, from our Assistant Principal, Jo Reed.
Join us on this journey towards building stronger, more resilient student, staff and parents. Together, we can make a positive difference in the lives of our children and our community.
Afternoon Pick-Up
2.55pm
- Kindergarten, Year 1 and Year 2 students (and their older siblings from Years 3-6) are dismissed for pick-up at “Donut” or OSHC.
- All students who catch a bus, who will be walked to the bus stop.
3.00pm
- Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 students for pick up or OSHC. We encourage Year 3 students to be collected at Donut, and all Years 4, 5 and 6 students on Heidelberg Street.
Drivers collecting students on Heidelberg St are asked to move to fill the front spaces, with children proceeding to then get in the car. For safety and traffic flow reasons, students are not permitted to get in cars near the bus stop (at the back of the pick-up zone).
Please let Grandparents and Careers know so that we can continue to keep our children safe.
Swimming Carnival
I am looking forward to next week’s Carnival at Queanbeyan. It’s a great venue and families are encouraged to spend some time enjoying the atmosphere. Years 3 – 6 with some Year 2 children will attend. Kindergarten, Year 1 and the majority of Year 2 will remain at school and participate in a water fun day.
Thank you to all of the staff and volunteers who have a role in organising and assisting with the swimming carnival.
It was once said…
Blessings to you and your family.
