Just One
One song can spark a moment, One flower can wake the dream One tree can start a forest, One bird can herald spring. One smile begins a friendship, One handclasp lifts a soul. One star can guide a ship at sea, One word can frame the goal One vote can change a nation, One sunbeam lights a room One candle wipes out darkness, One laugh will conquer gloom. One step must start each journey. One word must start each prayer. One hope will raise our spirits, One touch can show you care. One voice can speak with wisdom, One heart can know whats true, One life can make a difference, You see, its up to you!

School Leaders
Congratulations to all the year 6 students who were inducted as our school leaders today. We hope they continue to be a great example to the rest of the school. School Captains - Alanna and Sway MacKillop Sports Captains Abbey and Dylan Penola Sports Captains - Jessica and Sam
Please note the change to lunch time and the change of time for the end of the day. In the morning, the bell rings at 8:45am to ensure children are in class by 8:50am. Should you be late, your child will need to be brought to the front office for a late slip which is then given to the classroom teacher.
Ash Wednesday
Today marks the beginning of Lent, a special time for us to think about the place God has in our lives. During Lent we take the time to work for God in a special way, through prayer, going without something we really love, and through giving to the poor. Project Compassion boxes will have gone home last week, and these provide a reminder for us all to give what spare money we have to the poor.

Live Well at School

Turn off the TV or computer and get active Set a limit on the amount of time children watch television or spend on the computer. Two hours a day is the maximum. Too much screen time limits physical activity. On the weekend, live life instead of watching it on TV. Find a new place to hike, bike or run. When you hear Im bored think of something active to do. During the winter months, avoid allowing children to watch too much TV or play video games. Encourage active play, which builds social, mental and physical motor skills.
Why reduce television time? studies have shown we use less energy watching TV than sitting still TV influences the food choice of kids Australia has a high rate of food advertising during childrens viewing hours TV replaces time a child can be active and enjoy physical activity there is an association between TV watching and being overweight 40% of children 5 12 years report watching an average of two hours or more of television or videos a day.
