Wellbeing Week

Last week we celebrated Wellbeing Week at Gulgong Public School. It was a great opportunity for students and staff to take a break and do some fun activities around our own wellbeing.

Over the week we participated in activities around a different theme each day.

We had:

* Magnificent Monday

* Check In Tuesday

* Fill Your Bucket Wednesday

* Thankful Thursday

* Fun Friday

We also had a few events on over the week.

We had a Year 6 Students vs Teachers netball game which was a lot of fun.

All students and teachers from Kindergarten to Year 6 came down to the Netball courts and watched.

We also had our very first ‘Gulgong’s Got Talent’ which was organised by Mrs Lewis on Friday.

A big congratulations goes to all the students who auditioned over the past few weeks to be in Friday’s finale.

All students who competed last Friday did a wonderful job on stage.

Congratulations to the Year 6 Band and Miss Jones on taking out our first Gulgong’s Got Talent and to Chloe McKenzie who received the Encouragement Award.

We also held our Term 4 Disco last Friday as well as ‘Wear what makes you happy’.

Overall we had a great week here at GPS.
