Wow! What a great start to our Jump Rope for Heart program. All classes have been developing their skipping skills in PE lessons and our skipping ropes are ALL being used in the yard at recess and lunch. I have been so impressed with the student’s fast development and it is lovely to see how eager they are to participate in this program.

Friday 19th March ‘National Day of Action – Bullying NO WAY!’
Across classes at Seacliff Primary, students participated in a variety of lessons, tasks and activities to raise awareness of the definition of bullying, the impact of bullying and strategies to prevent and stop bullying to mark The National Day of Action Against Bullying and Violence.
Student wellbeing is a priority and staff diligently get to know their students, plan engaging learning tasks and provide opportunities for achievement, build respectful and supportive relationships and closely monitor the emotional wellbeing of each. Similarly, staff wellbeing is vital to manage stress and maintain a healthy work/life balance and to flourish in life.

On Monday 29 March, 40 Seacliff Primary students headed to the Brighton Lacrosse Club to play in a carnival against a variety of schools. This carnival was a great way to introduce these students to lacrosse and expand their skills in a sport that some of them haven’t played a lot of.
At Seacliff Primary School, students in Years 5, 6 and 7 comprise our Student Voice in Learning project team. Our students are empowered to fully and proudly participate in school life. By building in student voice opportunities across all aspects of learning, students can engage, participate, lead and learn.
Our school’s ‘Core Values’ are COMMUNITY, ACHIEVEMENT, RESILIENCE, RESPECT, INNOVATION and INTEGRITY.
We have been creating community art pieces as a means to support and promote these values in the way that we live our lives from day to day. We hope to have the RESPECT and ACHIEVEMENT art works completed before the end of 2022.
Soccer remains one of the most popular school sports at Seacliff and in 2020 we had six teams, including two in under 8. Our teams competed on Saturday mornings and also at an evening lightning carnival during the season. To ensure the success of the soccer program we had many parent volunteers. We thank them for their outstanding contributions to school sport at Seacliff.
