Head of Community & Welfare, Junior School - Michelle Sprenger
Dear Parents and Carers,
It’s been a fabulous start to Term 3, with Stage 3 settled back into Florence Young and the renovated spaces wowing us all! We’ve also warmly welcomed back Mrs Ashleigh Waldren to Stage 1 and Mrs Martina Toms to the Stage 2 team. The Athletics Carnival added to the buzz, with wonderful House spirit on display.
Last week in parent sessions, Dr Judith Locke shared five essential life skills: resilience (bouncing back), self-regulation (doing hard things now for a better future), resourcefulness (solving problems independently), respect (valuing the rights of others), and responsibility (being community-minded). These skills align beautifully with our Calvary distinctive on the development of character.
Encourage your child to grow these skills through our Term 3 co-curricular clubs (see link) and explore Judith’s book The Bonsai Child to continue the journey at home.
