LETTER FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Dear Families/Carers The Victorian Government has released its plan for easing coronavirus (COVID-19) restrictions. School will continue to provide remote and flexible learning for the remainder of Term 3. 5 – 9 October (first week of Term 4) On-site supervision for children of permitted workers and vulnerable students will continue to be provided consistent with existing guidelines. From 12 October Students in Prep to Grade 2 return to full-time on-site schooling. The existing remote learning program will not continue for these year levels. I will provide further information of the return to school arrangement next week. Remote and flexible learning will continue for all students in Grade 3 to Year 6 other than for children of permitted workers and vulnerable students. A date for the return of these year levels to face-to-face learning will be subject to further health advice. Is your child spending too much time playing games on devices? There is no magic figure. The right amount of screen time can depend on a range of factors like your child’s age and maturity, the kind of content they are consuming, their learning needs and your family routine. It can be easy to focus only on the clock, but the quality and nature of what they are doing online, and your involvement, are just as important. Consider your child’s screen use in the context of their overall health and wellbeing. For example, is online time getting in the way of their sleep and exercise? Is it impacting on their face-to-face connections with family? The answers to these questions will guide you and help strike the right balance of online and offline activities for your child. Help your child manage their online time:

Keep an eye on the games, apps and devices your child uses. Chat with your child regularly and help them stay aware of how much time they are spending on different online and offline activities.

Include positive things outside the online world in your conversations, such as what they love in life, careers they are interested in and new hobbies.

Join in. Play games together as a family, or explore some joint online projects. Rather than being just a solitary activity, online time can then become another way of strengthening connections as well as building social skills.

Hope these are helpful. Stay safe Mrs Margaret LEACH School Principal

MÜDÜRDEN MEKTUP Sayın Veli, Viktorya Hükümeti, koronavirüs (COVID-19) kısıtlamalarını hafifletme planını açıkladı. Okul, 3. Dönem'in geri kalan süresinde uzaktan ve esnek öğrenim sağlamaya devam edecek. 5 – 9 Ekim (Term 4.Dönemin ilk haftası) çalışma izin verilen işçilerin çocukları ve savunmasız öğrenciler için yerinde denetim, mevcut yönergelere uygun olarak sağlanmaya devam edecektir. 12 Ekim’den İtibaren Hazırlık sınıflarından 2. Sınıfa kadar olan öğrenciler tam zamanlı olarak okula dönecekler. Mevcut olan uzaktan eğitim programı bu yıl seviyeleri için devam etmeyecektir. Önümüzdeki hafta, okula dönüş düzenlemesi hakkında daha fazla bilgi vereceğim. Uzaktan ve esnek öğrenme, çalışmasına izin verilen işçilerin çocukları ve savunmasız öğrenciler dışında 3. ve 6. sınıfllar arasındaki tüm öğrenciler devam edecektir. Bu yıl seviyelerinin (3-6) yüz yüze öğrenime dönme tarihi verilecek daha fazla sağlık tavsiyesine bağlı olacaktır. Çocuğunuz oyun cihazlarında çok fazla zaman mı harcıyor? Bunun için mucize bir formül yoktur. Doğru ekran süresi miktarı, çocuğunuzun yaşı ve olgunluğu, kullandığı içeriğin türü, öğrenme ihtiyaçları ve aile rutini gibi bir dizi faktöre bağlı olabilir. Yalnızca saate odaklanmak kolay olabilir, ancak çevirimiçi (onlline) olarak yaptıklarının kalitesi, özelliği ve ayrıca sizin katılımınız da aynı derecede önemlidir. Çocuğunuzun ekran kullanımını genel sağlığı ve esenliği bağlamında değerlendirin. Örneğin, çevirimiçi (online)süresi, uyku ve hareket süresinin önüne mi geçiyor? Ailesiyle yüz yüze etkileşimini mi etkiliyor? Bu sorulara verilen cevaplar size rehberlik edecek, çocuğunuz için çevirimiçi ve çevirimdışı etkinlikler arasında doğru bir denge kurmanıza yardımcı olacaktır. Çocuğunuzun çevirimiçi (online) zamanını yönetmesine yardımcı olun: Çocuğunuzun kullandığı oyun, uygulama ve cihazlara dikkat edin. Çocuğunuzla düzenli olarak sohbet edin, değişik çevirmiçi (online) ve çevirimdışı etkinliklere ne kadar zaman ayırdığının farkında olmasına yardımcı olun.

Sohbetlerinize çevirimiçi (online) dünyasının dışındaki olumlu şeyleri dahil edin, çocuğunuzun nelerden hoşlandığı, hangi mesleklere ve yeni hobilere ilgi duyduğu konular gibi.

Katılım sağlayın. Ailecek bir oyun oynayın veya çevirimiçi (online) bir proje keşfedin.

Sadece tek başına bir aktiviteden ziyade, çevirimiçi (online) zaman, sosyal becerileri geliştirmenin yanısıra diğer bağları da güçlendirmek için bir başka yöntem olabilir.

Bu bilgilerin faydalı olacağını umuyorum. Saygılarımla, Mrs Margaret LEACH Okul Müdürü
