Kids with picky palates

by | Sep 12, 2023 | , , ,

By Triple P: Positive Parenting Program. Children who are ‘fussy eaters’ are a common concern for families and can often be a source of anxiety and worry for parents and carers. Experts at the Triple P – Positive Parenting Program are giving families simple and practical tips to inject some more joy and adventure into mealtimes. Research has found up to 50 per cent of children may be described as ‘picky eaters’. While there’s no universal definition of fussy eating, Triple P International Head of Training Dr Alan Ralph, says that it can leave parents and carers feeling stressed and worried. “Fussy eating can include things like refusing to try new foods, preferring certain textures and tastes or refusing to eat fruit or veggies,” Dr Ralph said.

Negotiations on

Negotiations on

by | Sep 12, 2023 | , , ,

By Nasik Swami. The South Australian Education Union and the state government are still at loggerheads over better pay and conditions for public educators. Union president Andrew Gohl told this newspaper that the parties have not reached any agreement yet, and their executives “will determine whether industrial action is needed” again. If the union members vote for a second strike action, many public schools, including those in Naracoorte and the Limestone Coast region, would close for another day. An industrial action on September 1 resulted in the closure of over 160 public South Australian schools, with teachers protesting outside the South Australian Parliament. According to the Education Department, 167 of South Australia’s 927 public schools and pre-schools were closed or operating on a reduced program because of the strike. Mr Gohl said government negotiators were working on developing an improved second offer to meet the union’s stated deadline. “We wait […]
