4. Say Thank you for you apology
5. Say “Thanks for listening.”

Our Week 6 Social and Emotional Wellbeing Focus to develop relationship skills is: Asking for Help
1.Asking for help is when you feel a situation is out of your control.
2.You are unable to deal with the situation on your own and need help.
3.You can ask for help for yourself or someone else.
4.Asking for help for yourself or others is always okay.

Please:
1. Look at the person.
2. Ask the person to help you by saying,
   “Can you please help me”.
    Then clearly explain the kind of help that you need.
3. In an emergency ask an adult for help.
    Say, “Can you please help me. It’s an emergency”.
    Then clearly explain the kind of help that you need.
4. Thank the person for helping.

We would very much appreciate you discussing these weekly focuses with your children and reviewing the expected and non-acceptable behaviours in our endeavour to see that St Patrick’s is a more respectful, responsible, and safe learning community for all.
