Reminder PE Tomorrow:
Friendly reminder that PE is on tomorrow, so please wear your sports uniform to school.
Rumbles Quest:
Students in Years one to six will participate in Rumble's Quest this term. This is an online game that has been designed to measure student well-being.
When children participate in Rumble’s Quest they complete fun challenges and answer questions about how they experience the world.
The questions are grouped into four areas:
* Attachment to School - how children feel about school
* Social Confidence - how children feel about themselves and how they relate to others
* Self Regulation - how children manage their feelings and actions
* Supportive Relationships – how children feel nurtured within secure environments.
These are all factors that underpin learning and are building blocks for a wide range of skills such as: forward planning and the ability to set and achieve positive goals, the ability to manage our behaviour and emotions and to consider consequences before engaging in action. They are fundamental to making responsible decisions, getting along with others, and coping with difficult circumstances.
We are using this measure at the school as part of our student well-being framework. Rumble’s Quest takes students approximately 45 minutes to complete. It will be undertaken in class groups over the next two weeks. The information we gather will help our school set student support directions and inform teaching and learning strategies. We can use the game again in the following years to gather information about the effectiveness of our student well-being strategies.
