CANCELLED: Year 6 Tinkering

Tinkering is the Year 6 DDT/STEM activity where students are challenged to take a non-working electrical appliance, take it apart and label the parts both inside and out.

Parents, especially dads and granddads with their tools, are encouraged to attend in the morning to assist. The parents/helpers will be given tea and coffee at morning tea in appreciation for their assistance.

After recess, the students create their own natural disaster detector prototype from the electrical pieces they collected from their appliance and present to the class what their detector is for and how it works.

Herbert Edwards Tennis Cup

The Herbert Edwards Cup forms part of the competition series run by Tennis West and School Sport WA State Championship for schools. Students in Years 7-9 will compete.

Newman Parents – A Night with Justin Coulson

Dr Justin Coulson, one of Australia’s most respected and popular Positive Psychology & relationships speaker, facilitator, author, and researcher (particularly in family life) will present his presentation via live stream on Zoom:

Inside the Mind; Raising an emotionally intelligent Child
In this session, Dr Coulson will share his expertise and equip parents to become more emotionally intelligent when it comes to their child.
Sometimes we just don’t relate to our children. It’s like they came from another parent. Did we really conceive, birth, and raise this child? It can be so hard to understand our children.

Inside the Mind – Raising an Emotionally Intelligent Child is a presentation for parents to get to the heart of parenting. Or, more specifically, it’s to help parents get to their children’s hearts. How do we really understand our child? What is really happening inside their mind? This powerful presentation will change the way you communicate with your child.

The presentation will be followed by a Question and Answer session.
