China Visit
We recently hosted students from our Chinese sister school, The New Oriental Foreign Language School, for a week. We would like to thank Jolie for all her hard work organising the visit as well as all the families and teachers who hosted students and teachers during the visit. Without your support we would not be able to run this successful program. See photos from the visit later in the newsletter.
District Athletics Day
On Thursday the 6th of September some students from grades 4, 5 and 6 completed in the District Athletics Carnival. We would like to congratulate them on their efforts.

Facts and Tips
Social Media
Fact: On average, children aged 10 to 14 years have 2 active social media accounts
1. Talk regularly with your child about privacy settings on social media. Updating your own privacy settings sets a great example and helps you understand potential safety issues. Be aware of any minimum age requirements.
2. Keep your ears and eyes open. Other parents and the media can be a great source of information when it comes to the latest or most preferred app.
3. Let your child know that you’re really interested in how they’re connecting with friends. They might be more inclined to talk openly about social media if you talk about what others (their friends and peers) are doing online.
Screen Time
Fact: On average, outside of school, 10 to 14 year olds spend 23 hours online per week
• Try to encourage positive screen time, like content that you can view and enjoy together. Discourage anything that is overly aggressive or disrespectful.
• Negotiate key rules together, such as when screens can be on and when they need to be turned off. Young teens are likely to respond better to rules that they’ve contributed to and see as being fair and consistent.
• Agree ahead of time on the rules and strategies to get your child to switch off from the screen. With gaming, think about a timer that signals that game time is nearly over and be clear about the consequences for not switching off.
