We value the importance of a healthy body, healthy mind, positive relationships and strong connections at TPPS.
As part of the the Kind Schools network, we have integrated weekly lessons from the Kindness Curriculum. Students enjoy the simple but powerful message of kindness in all aspects of our lives.
We are long standing members of The Fathering Project and boast a great turn out at our events. It is always fabulous to see such a huge turn out of dads and father figures join us in creating special memories with their children.
Staff and students also enjoy our visits to Goodhew Gardens and Woolooware Shores and Grandparents Day event as key elements of our Intergenerational programs. We love spending time with the residents at Goodhew, which is of mutual benefit to everyone.
As part of the National School Chaplaincy program, TPPS is very fortunate to have a chaplain at our school 2 days a week. Mrs Jamieson supports our students by providing workshops, lessons and strategies to improve resilience, emotional and social skills, friendship groups and family connections.
Gratitude Week is celebrated in Term 4, reinforcing the wellbeing initiatives we offer our students throughout the year. This week long event covers a range of body and mind focused activities, including journalling, yoga, gratitude chains and cards. The objective of these activities is to nurture our wellbeing, supporting us in being happy, confident and well rounded individuals.
