Dear Families,
As we come to the end of Term 3, I want to extend my gratitude to each of you for your ongoing support. Gratitude is an important and vital practice in all of our lives, to recognise the time, contributions, efforts and work of others. At SBW, we cannot do what we do without collaborative, constructive and respectful partnerships with families and the wider community. By working together we are able to support and do better at our core business- improving student outcomes. It is important to note though that student outcomes are not just academic. At SBW, we develop the whole child- spiritually, emotionally, socially, physically and academically. Further to this, it is integral that we extend our gratitude to our staff who work tirelessly to support our students. Thank you to all of our staff for your work and the impact you are having on lives of our students.
For the last newsletter of Term 3, I have asked our school captains, Hurley and Katelyn to share their reflections below.
Thank you for your ongoing support and I wish you all a safe and restful break.
Nic
Dear Families,
As students at SBW this term, we have had a big focus on team building. We have participated in team building activities, such as learning how to work as a team to create and build a tower out of spaghetti sticks and tape. Later on in the term, we went to Camp Clayton for the 5/6 camp. During camp, we completed a series of activities such as the giant swing and team rescue. Learning to work together as a team is important because it is a life skill that we will need to use throughout our life, at school, in our job and at home.
From SBW School Captains,
Hurley and Katelyn
