Duke of Edinburgh Awards
Years 10 - 13. Great progress by many of you getting your awards properly set up and logging caught up in the last few days. Keep getting organised.
Remember if you have an award that isn't finished you can still complete it, and then move on the the next level - especially Year 11s who still need to complete Bronze can then move onto Silver. You should remember this is a great leadership development opportunity. See Mrs Lynch for help if needed.
City Bus
The City Bus must leave 5mins after the bell at the end of the school day. If you are using this service please do your best to go straight to the Bus Bay afterschool. With the traffic situation around the city it is struggling to meet its schedule in the Square so Tranzit has informed the school that it must leave no later than 3.20pm.

SchoolTV

SchootTV

"It’s never been more challenging for parents to raise happy, healthy and resilient children.

Like never before, parents need to be informed with clear, fact-based information on the many challenges faced by today’s youth. Topics such as youth anxiety, depression, self-harm, drug and alcohol use, cyberbullying and many others need clear explanation and guidance.

SchoolTV is a new ongoing resource that is now available to our parents. Each edition will address a major topic with expert interviews, fact sheets, parent quiz, recommended apps, books and much more. SchoolTV aggregates information from many great resources such as BeyondBlue and ReachOut, amongst others. SchoolTV provides a single stream of independent factual information that saves parents time and confusion of searching online across multiple sites for information.

You can access the SchoolTV archive here: https://stpeterspn.nz.schooltv.me/category-latest-newsletter.
