On Wednesday, July 22 students at Our Lady of Rosary Primary School at Wyoming were treated to a 45 minute yo-yo demonstration with a powerful message.
NED is an acronym for, Never give up, Encourage others and always Do your best.
“The messages from NED fit nicely with what we are trying to achieve with our Positive Behaviour for Learning approach and also with our Rock and Water program currently in operation for some of our students,” said principal, Mr Frank Cohen.
“Quite simply, all children have a right to feel safe and secure and all children have a right to realise their own potential with encouragement,” Mr Cohen said.
“The NED show provided powerful messages for the children to incorporate into their own lives. “To fund the show, the school is obliged to sell yo-yo’s on behalf of the organisers, so in many respects they may or may not recover their costs depending upon how many yo-yo’s they sell to the children.
“A special yo-yo use area will be established in the playground for the kids to play in break times for the next few weeks,” he said.
