Sometimes your child doesn’t need a lecture… they need a RESET. 🫶

When the grumpies take over, try connection, movement, silliness, or a change of scenery before jumping straight to correction.

You’re not “giving in.” You’re helping their little nervous system find its way back to calm. 🤍

Save this for the next “I’m DONE” moment. 👇

🌟 Dorrigo PS acknowledges and appreciates our wonderful staff during SASS Recognition Week 🌟
This week, schools across NSW are celebrating School Administrative and Support Staff (SASS) Recognition Week.

Our front office is managed by Melissa, Jessica and Leanne. They take care of the huge job of admin in a public school, liaising with parents and looking after the daily wellbeing needs of our students. 📞 😩 🩹

In classrooms, our teachers are supported by the SLSOs (Student Learning and Support Officers) who run small groups, help with classroom organisation and most importantly, support the wellbeing of students. We thank Leanne, Deb, Sammi and Suzi. 📕 🎲 🤧

Ken is our highly capable general assistant who maintains our beautiful grounds, fixes things when we break them and thinks outside the square to keep our school running. 🌳 🔨 🏫

A school can’t run effectively without these members of our team and we are so lucky to have them!🍀 Thank you 🙏

🌟 Happy SASS Recognition Week! 🌟
