These are invaluable. It is your opportunity as parents to meet the people who are nurturing and supporting your daughter everyday. It is also an opportunity to celebrate achievement and growth and reflect on how to move forward when the results have not been as expected.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Newman Program at MSCW is thriving. Your daughter should be coming home everyday excited about her learning and feeling challenged. In the day to day of school life, the program <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">offers our gifted and talented students academic rigour, creative and critical thinking experiences and enrichment opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I refer to the principles from SCS regarding the Newman Program and its aims:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">3.1 Giftedness is present in every culture, socio- economic context and a variety of domains.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">3.2 All students have the right to receive an education that is responsive to their needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">3.3 Effective school environments based upon quality teaching, learning and leadership are essential for helping all students achieve their potential.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Learning goes hand in hand with their social and emotional wellbeing. Where your daughter is struggling, it is important you reach out. I am also open to hearing about the learning your daughter is experiencing in class.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tomorrow, I will join some of the philosophy students and Newman students for the Thriving Minds Conference. This is a day of critical thinking, where students will listen to lectures from Oxford University professors and discuss big philosophical ideas from Descartes and the intricate debate between science and miracles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Mrs Colreavy\u2019s Conundrum<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Find the correct word that fits this association.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>acrophobia : height :: nyctophobia :\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> water<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> weight<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> spider<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> darkness<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Email: <\/span><\/i><a href=\"mailto:rachael.colreavy@syd.catholic.edu.au\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">rachael.colreavy@syd.catholic.edu.au<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> with your answer.
