Michelle M Thanks again Parent Club. Racism Hi Everyone, Today I am doing a speech about racism. Racism is when people are bullying others about being different. It could be: skin colour, religion, race, body size and disability. This is unfair to others because it puts them under pressure. This pressure causes depression and thinking to end your life because they feel worthless. If this happens to you talk to someone like our chap- lain or your mum and dad. Even your friends could be teased about it so you need to ask them: “Can I help?” We need to be sensitive to other cultures and their people who have moved here. Here are some reasons why: 1. They struggle with different languages they do not know. 2. They have a new life in different countries. 3. Respect different religions and skin colours. 4. People with disabilities need to be respected. These are some organisations you can call: Beyond Blue, Salvation Army and community shelters. This is the end of my speech and I hope you liked it.

Welcome to Education Week! Actually, every week is education week here at Boronia West. We have had some exciting learning happening across the school – not the least of which was our Prep/1 B buddy cooking experience yesterday.
Health Ed was very informative for our senior school students and Mrs. DeAngelis’ students were learning all about sinking and floating.
Our parents got together for Coffee On The House and had conversations around our student wellbeing and engagement practices. Thanks goes to Rita for putting this together and bringing some delicious morning tea. Thanks also goes to our chaplain Robbie for doing a great job of explaining why we do things the way we do here at Boronia West.
This Saturday is our working Kitchen Garden Working Bee. Come along at 12:00 – 3:00pm and help transform our school.

Kitchen Garden Working Bee
Boronia West PS Building and Grounds
Committee require your help.
On 23th May 2015,
12 - 3 pm: we will be having a school working bee
devoted to our kitchen garden.
4 ways you can get involved: - firstly, we need keen green thumbs to help us get the veggie patches ready for planting. - secondly, we need people to help with re-pairs to the garden beds, fencing and paint-ing of the upright posts around the veggie patch as well as people to help mulch our cut down trees. -thirdly, we are looking for people whom can provided seedlings, plants and other materi-als so we can look at building the following (a open air compost, vertical gardens and large planter boxes for our concreted court yards and lastly an aquaponics setup in the court yard behind our library). -lastly we would like everyone’s feedback and ideas on how we, at Boronia West PS, can have the best Kitchen Garden around.
We will also be putting on a sausage sizzle on the day for those who turn up.
