‘Get Moving’ was the theme for St Michael’s annual ‘a-thon’ event held on Tuesday September 4 2018. This year we focussed on the healthy benefits of ‘getting moving’ and its influence on the learning and development of children.

Our school was registered for National Health & Physical Education Day which was on September 5.

Health & Physical Education (HPE) Day is a nationwide initiative that highlights the importance of HPE in the Australian Curriculum, and its influence on the learning and development of children.

Most children’s waking hours are spent sitting at school and at home, so it’s important to get them to be more active as part of everyday life.

The rain held off (nobody would have complained about rain!) and all planned grade activities were able to take place. The school was filled with the sounds of fun and frivolity as students and teachers engaged in energetic games. Everyone got moving!

Thank you to our families for your generous support of our ‘Move-a-thon’ day. A total of $15,948.95 has been raised so far to go towards the literacy and technology resources for teaching and learning.

    ☯️ Throwing it back… 💚 A little Monday throwback to our relaxing T’ai Chi sessions! 🍃✨ Our students loved slowing things down, finding their focus and building balance, one gentle movement at a time. 🧘‍♀️💫 Sometimes the quietest moments create the biggest impact. #StMichaelsBaulkhamHills #Throwback #TaiChi #MindfulMoments #StudentWellbeing #PrimarySchoolLife #LearningBeyondTheClassroom #CatholicEducation #SchoolCommunity #GrowingTogether #BalanceBodyMind #SydneySchools
