Welcome back to everyone and a special welcome to our new students and families to Pimpala Primary School.

The return to school and the routines which go with it can be a welcome change for some whilst others can struggle.  The routine of packing my lunches every day is one that I struggle with!  My goal is to be prepared and arrange my food for each day, the night before to reduce the number of jobs I need to do before leaving for school. 

Having a nutritious lunch box is one of the best strategies to support your child's learning and ensure they are fuelled adequately to learn.  There are some great ideas for healthy lunches available at https://kidgredients.com.au/lunchbox-recipes-and-lunchbox-reviews-everything-lunchbox/ and they have a lot of FAQs about how much to pack for children of different ages.  

What routines do you have and rely on? What routines could do with a revamp or some support?

If you are struggling with timing or getting your children organised you are definitely not alone!  Please speak with your child's classroom teacher or contact our Student Wellbeing Leader through the Front Office for support, as they have plenty of knowledge and great ideas for engaging children.  To quote High School Musical "We're all in this together."

Kind regards
