Welcome back to Term 4 I hope your holidays have been enjoyable and restful. Graduation This is the last term for our Graduating Students and their families David B, Jai H, Jack O, Trish B, and Scott A. It is both an exciting and sometimes an anxious time for these students who will be moving onto the Futures for Young Adult programs. We will be celebrating the end of their schooling years with a special Graduation Dinner on Tuesday 18th December. In the meantime we hope they all enjoy their final term of school at Mornington SDS. Warmer Weather- Sun Smart
Term 4 is the term when the weather improves and we begin to see more of the Sun. With the increase in temperatures we need to remember to be Sun smart. All students should have hats to wear outside during play and Physical education sessions. Please ensure your son or daughter has their own supply of sunscreen named and sent to school along with a suitable hat and adequate drinks in their lunches. Staff will encourage students to drink more water on these warmer days. If your child does not drink tap water please ensure they have sufficient drinks in their lunches for these days. On extreme heat days we will operate an indoor program for the students during recess and lunch breaks. Robyn Simmonds Principal

Care Monkey and Asthma Australia CareMonkey is a safe and free web app for sharing health care information. Asthma Australia has partnered with CareMonkey in order to contribute to the safety and well-being of people with asthma. Parents can create a profile for their child in CareMonkey which can be shared with trusted carers, including family, friends, teachers and sports coaches. Vital information such as emergency contacts, health and safety alerts, medications, allergy details, asthma plan and more can be easily shared.
Consider creating a profile for your child with asthma (or other medical condition) and share this with others including the staff at your school or preschool. Go to caremonkey.com for more information.
Holiday and Festival Asthma Trigger Warning The upcoming holiday season and festivities planned during Term 4 and throughout the summer holidays may mean that your child is exposed to new triggers for their asthma. It is important for parents and carers, and children themselves, to be aware of changes to their environment and the activities that may impact on their asthma. Christmas trees, both real and artificial could be triggers for people with asthma. Artificial trees may be quite dusty after being stored away, while both real and artificial trees may harbour mould. It is important to ensure that artificial trees are cleaned appropriately and that care is taken to select real trees that do not produce wind-borne pollen. All tree and other decorations should cleaned and free from dust and mould when used at home. Scented candles, room deodorisers and air fresheners may also trigger asthma in those susceptible to perfumes, and care should be taken when purchasing these and other scented items at home. Lastly, the added pressures of the year drawing to a close can cause stress and anxiety for many people, potentially triggering asthma attacks. It is important to consider ways that the whole family can enjoy the holidays and feel safe happy and comfortable. Happy Holidays from The Asthma Foundation of Victoria.
