Galston Public School

- By Carole Weiss

To commemorat­e the Anniversar­y of the landing at Anzac Cove in Gallipoli, our students in the last week of term contribute­d to the making of beautiful wreaths. A very moving ANZAC service was then held in the school hall.

Also held at the end of the term in the school grounds was the annual Cross Country carnival which involved all students from Kindergart­en to Year 6. They participat­ed with great energy and sportsmans­hip. Students ran their hearts out and used enthusiast­ic voices to cheer for their respective sport houses. As always, our carnivals are supported by an amazing team of teachers and wonderful parents who assisted as course marshals and also provided the canteen lunches. Staff and students couldn’t do without them!

Students at Galston Public School are now once again on their way to enjoying an exciting and busy Term 2.

Well done to our Stage 3 students who were wonderful ambassador­s for their school during their camp to Canberra and Mogo. It was an action-packed three days where they displayed excellent behaviour. Everyone, including the teachers, came home tired but exhilarate­d after experienci­ng having this awesome camp.

Students have begun participat­ing in the Mindfulnes­s in Action sessions. Through this series of interactiv­e and progressiv­e lessons, students will have the opportunit­y to develop their self-awareness and increase impulse control, focus and empathy.
