Focus of the Week
The Care Class focus that will be delivered this Friday is ‘Managing our Big Emotions”.
We care for self and care for others by managing our big feelings. Managing our big emotions can also help us care for our learning.
Sometimes we have big feelings which are hard to manage. It is important to use our strategies to help us to recognise, control and manage our emotions, learning how to self-regulate.
“To Manage our Big Feelings” we need to remember:
- It is never ok to hurt someone
- Recognise the feeling in my body
- Know and use a strategy that helps me
- Use words to say how I feel and what I wish would happen
- Ask for help
- Take time to calm and understand when you are Centred and Ready to Learn.
A lovely little social story that you may wish to use at home with your children “Sometimes I make mistakes”.
ICAS Registration
Mango Hill State School will once again be participating in the 2021 ICAS Assessments. ICAS is designed to target students’ higher-order thinking and problem-solving skills in English, Mathematics, Science, Spelling and Digital Technologies. Each assessment celebrates students’ accomplishments by providing opportunities for recognition. Top performers will be eligible for medals and the opportunity to attend a special award ceremony to have their academic excellence publicly recognised.
Please find attached the details regarding registration and Online Parent Payment System. Specific details of assessment days and times will be released in the near future.
End of Semester 1 Music Concert
On Thursday 17 June there will be the opportunity to hear the Mango Hill State School Music Ensemble perform at our end of Semester 1 Concert. This will include our First Year Strings, Senior Strings, Concert Band, Senior Choir and Percussion Ensembles.
The concert will be held in the Piazza and will start at 6pm finishing at approximately 7pm. Students need to arrive by 5:30pm (at the latest) and come to the studio with their instruments. Everyone should wear formal uniform with school jacket or jumper.
We have organised for the Cafe to be open from 4:30-6pm for hot & cold drinks and snacks.
We look forward to our first live music performance and we invite our Mango Hill State School community to join us for the concert. It would be wonderful to especially see lots of our students who are new to the Instrumental Music program this year coming along to experience a music concert.
If you have any questions about the event please contact your instrumental teacher Mrs Alena Bogdan (Strings) axbog1@eq.edu.au, Mr Malcolm James (Brass, Wind & Percussion) mjame38@eq.edu.au or Mrs Morrell clmor0@eq.edu.au

Back of the school drop off and pick up
A reminder that Fantail Cr is a very narrow road and residents are concerned about the dangers of congestion with so many parents parking in that area. We encourage you to consider using the Mallard St Stop, Drop and Go as an alternate to parking.
