Parenting Ideas This weeks topic is:
Sleep Tips for Kids
Sleep is a critical component of enhancing a child’s
wellbeing, learning and development and overall
performance. The right amount of quality sleep will
ensure that their brain and body are being used at full
capacity.
Helping kids understand how their body clock works,
assisting them to work out their optimal bedtime
and putting lifestyle and sleep hygiene habits in place
can help them get the sleep they need to rest,
recuperate and flourish. You can find some tips to help
in the attached article.

Mudgee Respiratory Clinic
Our local Medical Centre has recently developed a child
friendly booklet “Going to the Mudgee Respiratory
Clinic” which may be of use if your child is feeling
unwell and needs to attend the clinic. It helps to explain
what happens once you get there and some things to
do if your child is feeling nervous. If you think this may
be useful for your family please contact the school
office to arrange a copy.
I would also like to remind parents in the case of your child needing to be tested for COVID-19, please contact the office to advise that your child has been tested and
keep them at home until you have received their results. Michelle Neaverson - Smith Principal
