HEALTH TIPS

Colds

Upper respiratory tract infections or colds are everywhere, especially in winter, so it is almost impossible to stop children from catching them. Here are some points which may help:

·         Teach your child to cover his/her nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing, and to wash hands straight afterwards.

·         Hands should be washed after blowing noses and before eating.

·         Use tissues once and then throw them in the bin. (Avoid using handkerchiefs.)

·         Keep your child home from school if he/she has a cold/cough/fever/pain.

·         Make sure that your children eat a balanced diet of plenty of healthy foods.

·         Keep children away from smoke – it irritates their eyes and nasal passages, making it more likely that they will catch a cold. 

What to do if your child gets a cold.

No treatment will cure a cold or make it go away more quickly, but you can help your child feel more comfortable:

·         Rest: This need not be in bed.

·         Provide extra drinks: If your child doesn’t want to drink much, try giving lots of small sips of water, milk or juice, or iceblocks to suck for older children.

RECONCILIATION DAY

Last week we all students and staff attending the Reconciliation Assembly that was led by our Indigenous Students and Mrs Longbottom.  Our assembly looked at what Reconciliation meant for us at Rawlinson and the message that came across was a message of cooperation, peace, and love.  The school also hosted a 'Wear it Yellow' day to support and raise funds for Children's Ground, an organisation that works tirelessly to support the health and education of First Nation's Children and their families.  With the support of our parents and students we managed to raise $145.90.  A big thankyou to our parent community for always being supportive of school initiatives.
