Weekly Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL)  

Welcome to Week 2 everyone. An exciting term for students as they get to participate in swimming at the pool this term. We are very fortunate to have the pool and to have Mrs Betts and staff on hand to help teach your child/children how to swim, which is why we are looking at Safety at the Swimming Pool as the PBL lesson this week. This involves: 

• Be lined up quietly at the start of each PE session; 
• Following all teacher/adult instructions whilst over at the pool; 
• Following the whistle prompts that Mrs Betts will teach; 

• Ensuring that we walk around the concrete; and 
• Slide into the pool slowly.  

Please take a moment to remind your child/children about safety at the pool to ensure that we keep everyone safe in the water.  

If kids are keen to get into some structured lunchtime activities we have a number of them on offer at Calliope State School. Below is the timetable and there is even one activity – 'Dance class' – which the lower school children can join in on. 

Lastly, Fantastic Fun Friday is on this week and the theme is Disco Party. Please remind your child/children to get their Stamp Charts in to be part of the fun.  

Thanks.
