Year 5/6 - My Body, My Life
A team from the Archdiocese will be coming to St Mary's Batlow on the evening of Tuesday 19 November 2019 from 6:00pm to 7:30pm to present the My Body, My Life Puberty and Personal Development Program to St Joseph's and St Mary's Year 5 and 6 students and their parents.
The topic of puberty is traditionally covered in the Year 5 and 6 school curriculum. This practice is now prescribed in the Australian Curriculum guidelines. As a Catholic school, we are committed to involving parents in this very important aspect of your child's development.
Children must be accompanied to the evening session by their parent or guardian. Both or either parents are very welcome to attend, it's great if a parent of the same gender can be present as they have been through the changes their child will experience. Boys and girls will be separated for this presentation.
The following day, during school hours, the program will continue for the midday session in class at St Joseph's with just the students.
