Pastoral Support Worker Update by Mrs Catriona Neilsen

During the first week of Remote Learning, I managed to be at school to be with the students who were in attendance. It was good to see staff and students and to provide support to those who needed some extra guidance with their remote learning. From this week I have been asked to work from home. Hence, I have established a Google Classroom, “St Patrick’s Port Kembla, Pastoral Support with Mrs Neilsen.” I am using this platform to provide ideas for Art and Craft activities; Opportunities for Mindfulness; Boredom Busters and ways to keep a positive mindset during this time. Here is the invitation link for your child to access the classroom: https://classroom.google.com/c/MzcwNzgzMzA3MTkz?cjc=2hiwu4f or if you would just like to enter in the code it is 2hiwu4f.

If anyone needs to contact me whilst we are remote learning (for extra support or would like some Art and Craft or Mindful Activities) please send me an email: CatrionaN@catholiccare.dow.org.au
