Brain Breaks
November GATCA Brain Break
Get Connected with like minded peers!
FINAL BRAIN BREAK for the YEAR
Friday, November 9
10:00am – 12:00pm
The weather is warming up, just the right time to get outside and get some vitamin D to shake off those winter blues!
Brain Breaks provide an opportunity for school aged children to socialise and meet like-minded peers in a park playground setting. Bring a rug, your morning tea and enjoy a break in the great outdoors.
Even if your children are at school and you would like to connect with other GATCA parents you are most welcome to join us for a chat. Brain Breaks has been scheduled for the second Friday of every month February to November (with some exceptions see previous post) so put the dates in your diary. Look forward to seeing you there!

National Survey: The effect of Giftedness on Social Isolation in Children: The role of Primary Extension Programs |
This is a nation-wide study. The hope of this study is to uncover whether academic extension programs can help to alleviate any social and emotional difficulties experienced by gifted children, to assist in the future location of government funding towards these programs.
It should take approximately 5 minutes to complete and is entirely anonymous. |
