Social Skills Learning continues at Sacred Heart in 2016....

With the success of our whole-school social skills program in 2015, the Sacred Heart staff are committed to ensuring that our students are supported in the acquirement of social skills again in 2016.

This year we have committed to the teaching and reinforcement of 3 focus social skills per term across the school. In Term 1, the school's focus social skills were:

• Active Listening
• Showing Respect and;
• Being Organised

We recognise the importance of parent involvement and the wider community when it comes to reinforcing social skills introduced and taught at school. We continue to encourage parent support and participation by keeping parents informed of the social skills that we teach via our newsletter and class blogs, and by offering suggestions on how to reinforce the focus social skills at home,

We look forward to sharing our journey with you, as we continue to post about our social skills learning to this blog this year. We welcome any feedback or comments regarding this blog. These can be emailed to: perlini.carolyn@cathednet.wa.edu.au
