P&F

Ruby Berkovic and Jennifer Opit

Hello All,

We hope you are keeping safe and well.

Father’s Day

Today was meant to be our Annual Father’s Day Breakfast on campus, together with our usual Cocoa Pops and coffee cart. As that isn’t possible, we have come up with a way to still celebrate as a community next weekend. A huge thank you to Justine Hofman, Jodie Gien and Jenny Nurick for their assistance in putting this all together.

P&F meeting

P&F meetings are held on the first Wednesday of each month at 7.00 pm on Zoom. Everyone is welcome so please join us as your support and input is valued.

Email Ruby Berkovic if you would like to attend the next meeting which will be next week on Wednesday 1 September 2021.

Mindfulness for tough times 

You can still register and sign up for the last Mini-Mindfulness Session on Zoom (at no cost) brought to you by Emanuel parent Jodie Gien, from Mindful Future Project.

The sessions started in Week One of this term and have been running on Wednesday mornings from 8.30 am – 8.50 am (running from Week 1 – Week 8). If you have registered for a session, you will be able to access it for one week afterwards (if you cannot log on for the live Zoom). You can connect via laptop or mobile from anywhere and you can join anytime.

To register: express interest by emailing Ruby Berkovic and you will be sent the Zoom links in advance.

The remaining session topic

Week 8: Happiness and Gratitude in a Pandemic

We would like to thank Jodie for providing our community with this fantastic opportunity.

Weekend trivia

We are shaking it up this week and will be asking you a couple of trivia questions instead of a brain teaser.

Question 1: Which monarch officially made Valentine’s Day a holiday in 1537?
Question 2: What is “cynophobia”?

We hope you have a great weekend,

Jen and Ruby
