Pastoral Support 2020

Whilst school looks a little different currently, I wanted everyone to know that I will continue to be providing Pastoral Support to students, staff and the community of St Patrick’s Primary School. For the time being I am still coming to school and being present to support to staff and students who are still onsite.

As school goes online, I have established several online classrooms where I can share creative ideas, opportunities for mindfulness, brain break activities and a place where students can be grateful. I encourage students to use the codes listed below to join the online classrooms. Some activities you may wish to do together as a family or students can undertake them by themselves.

• Gratitude Club. Code: nwyh3zk Each day students are encouraged to share what they are grateful for.
• Brain breaks and activities with Mrs Neilsen. Code: lfera6d These activities can be used for students to have a break from their work or to occupy their time on the weekend.
• Code: ocdwo6v A place to discover activities that will help students to calm down, reflect and find some peace.
• Creative Club. Code: 5inc2vw. Each week I will post a theme for students to use as inspiration for them to create something at home. When they have finished their creation, they can upload a photo to share.

 Please do not hesitate during this time to email me either on my CatholicCare email catrionan@catholiccare.dow.org.au or my DOW email nunanc01@dow.catholic.edu.au If you need to have a chat please send me an email and I will be able to give you a call.

Thanks

Mrs Catriona Neilsen (Pastoral Support Worker)
