Special Ed Athletics Last Wednesday, 13 November, students from Special Ed went to

Jubilee Park for our regional athletics carnival. It was a lovely sunny

day. There was lots of other schools there competing, everybody

that was there joined in and had a really fun day. Some of the

events we did were running, shot put, long jump, high jump and to

finish off we did relays. We represented Wagga High School with

pride and it was a good day to do the athletics carnival. Thanks to

all the staff and volunteers.

Building Positive Wellbeing Today, students participated in a wellbeing lesson that focused on

"Building Positive Wellbeing". The lesson asked students to identify

their own personal strengths and qualities. We also shared our

ideas about self esteem and ways that our peers can help recognise

what we are good at. To build protective factors we built, from the

house foundations through to the roof and chimney, the support

people we have in our lives. This lesson was supported with various

wellbeing clips dedicated to building a positive sense of personal

wellbeing. The lesson encouraged lots of conversation and shared

ideas. Students were given a bookmark with suggested coping

tools.

Mufti Day Last Friday, 15 November, SRC committee organised a Mufti Day

to raise much needed funds for Fire Services after the recent and

devastating Bushfires around Australia. Well done to everyone who

joined in, staff and students together raised $1,400 which was

donated to the Rural Fire Service.
