Dear mums, dads, carers and colleagues
The Resilience Project is big news at school. Every student is involved in learning important virtues of Gratitude, Empathy and Mindfulness. Thank you to our P&C for sponsoring this work.
If you have had your child come home in the last week pointing at things or better yet you saying 'dis' and are not sure what this is all about have a look at this week The Resilience Project Parent information flyer for a link to the gratitude video.
Here is the link to the Parent Hub.

Congratulations to Reggie on earning his Muay Thai brown arm band level last Friday. To earn this level, he had to do a 20 minute warm up including stretching skipping, bag work and shadow boxing, followed by 20 x 3 minute sparring rounds with other members. This was followed by 20 minutes of clinching then a 5 minute speech about what Muay Thai has taught him, how it has changed both him and his goals for the future. Well done Reggie.

Road safety
I have received a number of emails and calls from community members across the past fortnight regarding road safety and our children. The constant message is that children are on the road and not watching traffic. Drivers are being alert and watching for children, but all of the odds are stacked against the children.
Please:
- Discuss road safety with your children.
- Establish your road safety expectations and insist that these be met every time.
- Teach your children how to cross the road safely.

Are you looking for a fun and engaging activity for your child after school? Then look no further! We are excited to announce that our school library will now be open every Tuesday - Friday from 2:30pm to 3:00pm for After school story time.
Parents, carers and children of all ages are welcome to attend and immerse themselves in the magical world of books.
Story time sessions are not only a great way to spark your child's imagination and love for reading, but also provide valuable opportunities for social interaction and community building. Plus, it's the perfect way to unwind and relax after a busy day at school while the traffic rush passes.
Don't miss out on the fun! Join us for After-School Story time in the library. We can't wait to see you there!

Kokoda challenge training
We trained at the Nerang State Forest last Saturday morning, hitting the hills with gusto for over two hours. We are just three weeks away from the 18km challenge in Brisbane on Saturday 1 June. The anticipation is building.
Ever wondered what it might be like to volunteer to help in our Café? This video shows just some of the jobs our valued volunteers assist with.
No experience necessary and it is a great way to meet other families of school. We would be VERY grateful for your help.
Email volunteers@coomerariversss.eq.edu.au to join our Café Superhero volunteer team today!
