I am looking forward to working again at St Patrick's Michael's Primary School on Thursday and Friday. I will be continuing to work with staff and students to support their social, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. After the challenges of last year, I am looking forward to a brand-new school year where I can enable students to be the best that they can be. Like previous years I will providing support to students in their classrooms, running small groups including Seasons for Growth, organising activities at break times and supporting the liturgical life of the school. 

For parents not familiar with the Seasons for Growth program, it is an eight-week program for students that focuses on building up their social and emotional wellbeing following a significant change or loss within their life. The Seasons for Growth Notes will be sent out soon to students. Due to lockdown last year, I was unable to run the program for the students who were in Year 3. I will be starting Seasons with those who sign up for the program in Year 4 first, then will work with other students. To find out more information about the program please watch the clip about Seasons for Growth. www.goodgrief.org.au/seasons-for-growth
