Healthy Eating
Children in all year levels are encouraged to eat healthily at both recess and lunch times with duty teachers
focusing on helping your children identify always, sometimes and rarely foods that should form part of their
daily diet. Our school canteen is accredited and all food served passes the star rating criteria from the Western Australian School Canteen Association and is provided as a service for school families on a daily basis.
Please note that a school is not the place for fast food of any kind and this form of special treat for your children should be saved for home – this also applies to school event days such as sport carnivals and Sacred
Heart Day.
Protective Behaviours
Whilst the teaching of protective behaviours is embedded in our interactions with students Sacred Heart has a
particular focus in this area during Term Two across all year levels as part of the health program. It is important to educate children on their rights to personal safety and the way we do this is by teaching children
the following:









We all have the right to feel safe at all times and feelings
Early Warning Signs - the physical sensations we experience in our body when feeling unsafe or
excited
Safety continuum - safe/fun to feel scared/risking on purpose/unsafe and Problem Solving—how
could someone feel safe even if...?
We can talk with someone about anything, no matter what it is and safe secrets/ unsafe
secrets
Networks - Identifying adults that we can talk with and ask for help if we feel unsafe/scared/worried
Persistence expectation - persisting in asking for help until you feel safe again
Body Awareness and Ownership and Private and Public parts of the body (including teaching
and using the correct anatomical names for private parts of the body). Private and Public clothing/
Private and Public places/Private and Public Behaviours/ Private and Public Information
Personal space (social distance) and safe and unsafe touch
Assertiveness - body language/ tone of voice/ NO GO TELL
As parents, this term is an ideal opportunity to reinforce these messages with your children!
Kindy Speech Screening Parent Meeting
Kindy parents are invited to an information meeting about the Speech Screening that took place last term and
how best to understand the milestones of your children‘s speech development. Mrs Rochelle Walllace will
have your reports available for collection after the meeting.

Eagles Cup
Another successful week for our teams in Eagles Cup with three wins!
AFL
The AFL boys played an extremely good team and unfortunately lost 33-19. They
played really well and were unlucky with the bounce of the ball. I am sure they will turn
this around this week.
Soccer
The soccer team notched up another 8-0 win. They continued to play as a team with a defender even
­ coming down the field to score a penalty. The players were exceptionally encouraging of each other. Their
coach is very happy with their commitment with the students even running their own training at lunch time.
Netball
What a great game from both teams! Netball A players Jasmine Rose, Abby Eagles and Shae Rochford shot
a combined 27 goals, defeating St Emilies who only managed to score 4 goals. Over at the Netball B game,
their awesome defence ensured that St Emilies could only score one goal, with Alexis Oudin, Breanna Whitehead and Chloe Bennet shooting a combined 13 goals to win the game. We are looking forward to our next
games to see if we can keep up our awesome efforts!
This Friday 27 May the teams will play away at St Joseph’s. The Soccer and AFL play at Queens Park
Reserve (169 Treasure Road, Queens Park) and the Netball is at St Joseph’s School (140 Railway Parade, Queens Park).
Week 8 Friday 17 June—Sacred Heart v St Munchin’s—Home

THE CURRICULUM CORNER
Adjust and Compensate
When adding two digit numbers round one or both numbers to a multiple of 10. Then adjust the
answer to compensate for the rounding.
28+36
+2 - 2
30+34 = 64
The number 28 is rounded to the next 10 to make the problem easier. Because 2 is added to 28, 2
must be taken from 36 to compensate.
