Celebrating Father’s Day

For many years now, the role of fathers has changed and evolved. During the industrial revolution, fathers were often considered detached and distant due to working long hours in factories. However, today things have changed dramatically with many dads being celebrated for being sensitive, caring and more hands-on.

Recent studies have shown that children benefit greatly from having fathers who are present and interacting in everyday activities. This has transformed the understanding of how fathers shape children’s lives from the start, challenging conventional ideas of parenthood and gender.

Research also suggests that fathers influence their sons and daughters in different ways, which is especially true during their transition to adolescence. Engaging in regular physical activities can play a key role in influencing children to learn self-control, face challenges, regulate emotions and take manageable risks.

In this Special Report, fathers will learn about the positive impact they can have on their child’s mental health and wellbeing, whilst also ensuring they indulge in a little self-care. We hope you take time to reflect on the information offered in this Special Report, and as always, we welcome your feedback.

WAFFLE ON WEDNESDAY!

💬THIS WEEK’S QUESTION: Would you rather wear wet socks every day or always have one tiny rock in your shoe?

Each Wednesday, our students take part in Waffle On Wednesday, a fun weekly discussion designed to build conversation and communication skills.
Students share their opinions, explain their thinking, ask questions and respond to others. Everyone gets a chance to have their say, whether that’s through talking or using AAC communication.

We’d love families to start the conversation at home tonight. Chat about the question over dinner, in the car or whenever you have a few minutes together. It’s a great chance for students to think about their ideas before continuing the conversation with classmates on Wednesday.

Our Year 7 students absolutely lit up the stage in their musical last week!

It was fantastic to see the confidence, joy and enthusiasm they brought to their performances. They did an incredible job and it was wonderful to see them having so much fun, expressing themselves and proudly showcasing their hard work to the whole school.

Well done to all of our talented students!

In Week 4, we took four teams to the Wildcats Carnival, where students had the opportunity to play fixtured games against schools from across the North Metro region.

Students were gifted a Wildcats jersey and enjoyed an exciting day of playing fixtured games on the courts, challenging themselves, demonstrating great team spirit, and celebrating both their own successes and those of others.

Some students were also selected to represent their teams and take on Wildcats players, which was a fantastic experience. Students had the opportunity to meet the players, have photos taken and get their Wildcats jerseys signed.

We had a wonderful day and would like to extend a huge thank you to the Wildcats Club and their sponsors for providing such a memorable experience. It is sure to remain a highlight for many of our students!

As part of Bullying No Way Week, our students have been putting this year’s theme, 'Small Acts, Big Impact', into action.

Students wrote and sent letters to one another, sharing kind words, encouragement and gratitude. A letter might seem like a small gesture, but it was wonderful to see our students taking the time to think of others and recognise the difference kindness, respect and inclusion can make.
