WE ARE AN ALERGY AWARE SCHOOLWE ARE AN ALERGY AWARE SCHOOL
This is a reminder that we have several members of our school community who have an anaphylactic reaction to some allergens. These include anaphylaxis due to allergens in foods, drugs and insect venom. Please be aware that a number of these reactions are triggered by nuts and we ask that if your child brings food containing nuts to school that they do not share food, wash their hands thoroughly and dispose of their rubbish correctly. Likewise if you are providing any food to the school for sharing with students please give the teacher/s involved a list of ingredients so that we can identify any possible triggers and
prevent any allergic reactions.

SNAKESSNAKES
As Spring has arrived, local snakes are coming out of hibernation. There have been a number of juvenile and adult snakes spotted in the
park around the lake off Egerton Road.
It is important that if a snake is spotted, that it is left alone and a professional called to relocate it. Snakes usually avoid contact with people and only bite when threatened. Please speak to your children about being vigilant when outdoors and about not interfering with a snake if spotted. It would also be timely to
discuss with your child what to do if bitten by a snake.
The following information is taken from the West Australian Reptile Park website:
Stay calm and keep still
Do not wash the bitten area
Apply direct pressure over the bitten area
Apply a firm broad bandage over the bitten area first, then bandage down the limb
and continue to bandage up the full length of the limb
Do not remove the bandage
Immobilise the limb with a splint
Do not elevate the limb
Call 000 for an ambulance
Some of the common snakes are coloured similar to wood and thus not always noticed until they move. The most common snakes in Perth are: Dugites, King Brown, Tiger and Western Brown Snakes. For more information about snakes found in Perth please visit the websites of The West Australian Reptile Park or the Department of Environment and Conservation. If you find a snake and want it removed, please contact the Wildcare
Helpline on 9474 9055, who will refer you to your local Volunteer Reptile Remover.

COMMUNITY NOTICES
BRAVE-ONLINE is a ten-week, online program for the treatment and early intervention of anxiety problems in children and teenagers. It consists of ten sessions that are completed by the child, and five or six sessions for their parents, with
separate programs for children versus adolescents.
The program is designed for the four most common types of anxiety in young people: social anxiety, generalized anxiety, separation anxiety and specific phobias. The treatment incorporates cognitive behavioural anxiety management strategies, including psycho-education; relaxation training; recognition of the body signs of anxiety; cognitive strategies of coping self-talk and cognitive restructuring; graded exposure; problem solving; and self-reinforcement. Parents also learn these strategies in dedicated parent sessions, in addition to psycho-education about youth anxiety and training in contingency management strategies. Parent sessions are designed to empower the parent to help their child or
adolescent implement strategies and effectively manage situations in which their child becomes anxious.
