Telethon Kids Institute

29 Nov 2022

The Telethon Kids Institute are conducting an important research study in our town of Boyup Brook called, “Amped Out: an energy drink study”.

For the study to be successful, they need as many children as possible in grades 7-10 to participate in two 60-minute group discussions with other children, 6 months apart. The same is also required for parents to participate in two 60-minute group discussions with other parents, 6 months apart. The research findings will be used to inform future policies and practices related to energy drink intake in children.

Both the child information sheet and consent form, and parent information sheet and consent form, will be distributed to each student to take home and complete.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss any aspect of this study please feel free to contact either the Lead Investigator, Dr Gina Trapp (gina.trapp@telethonkids.org.au) or the Project Coordinator, Justine Howard on ph: (08) 6319 1465; justine.howard@telethonkids.org.au

P&C Morning Tea

28 Nov 2022

1^st December - A Date to Remember

Dear Parents/Guardians,

The P&C committee would like to be more active in the school and help bring a smile to students’ faces… so we have decided to provide morning tea for both sites. We are hoping parents would have time (ha ha) ? to bake a cream-free and nut-free something e.g. sweet or savoury muffins, slice, biscuits… These can be dropped off any time before the 1^st of December to be frozen for the day.

The morning tea would be available for a gold coin donation at recess, on Thursday 1st December, at both sites. If you are able to assist on the day from 10:30-11:00am, that would be awesome.

If you are able to assist in some way, could you please indicate on the attached form link.

P&C Morning Tea

Thank you!
From your P&C
