Back to School 2017

Tutoring gets

results

MARK and Lindy Carnovale and their team of committed teachers have been helping Goulburn Valley students achieve success at school for the past 26 years.

Their professional tutoring centre, in the Wyndham Mall, Shepparton, is a well-known destination for students needing extra assistance and eager to improve in their schooling.

They have changed their business name, from Kip McGrath Education Centre to Shepparton Tutoring Centre, however, the same caring, experienced teachers who have worked with your children for many years, continue their exceptional work from the same convenient premises in the Wyndham Mall.

Mark and Lindy have been most impressed with the progress of the students attending.

“When a student experiences difficulties in the basic areas of reading, spelling, writing or maths, self-esteem usually suffers,” Mark said.

“With our individualised tuition programs, students’ school results improve, leading to increased confidence and a more positive attitude towards their schoolwork. It is very satisfying and rewarding to see our students grow in confidence and skills.”

The centre offers tutoring for primary to year 12 students, in English, maths, reading, spelling, physics and chemistry, both for those struggling with their schoolwork and those wishing to extend their skills and improve their results.

Mark offers a free, no obligation assessment to establish the student’s needs. Tuition is tailored to each individual’s

Choose better for what’s in your child’s lunchbox IT can be hard sometimes to ensure that your child is getting the proper nutrients and energy needed to tackle a school day, but this can be achieved through a range of healthy lunchbox items that they will love.

A good helping of fruit and vegetables Fresh fruit is easy to pack. You can also try a tub of canned fruit or chopped fresh strawberries, pineapple or melon.

Raw vegies such as carrot sticks, cherry tomatoes, cucumber or capsicum strips are popular as a snack or in a sandwich.

Starchy food Like bread, rice, potatoes and pasta.

Have a variety to choose from such as wholegrain, wholemeal or high fibre breads such as seeded rolls, Lebanese bread, pita, lavash, bagels, brown and white rice or tri-colour pasta.

Lean protein Like tuna or salmon (fresh or canned in spring water or oils such as canola, sunflower or olive oil), boiled eggs, beans or lean meat such as beef or chicken.

Reduced fat dairy food Like reduced fat yoghurt, reduced fat cheese or reduced fat milk (remember to pack with a bottle of ice).

A bottle of water To keep your child hydrated all day.

Freeze on hot days to keep the lunch box (and your child) nice and cool.

Healthy choices

Look at food labels to help you choose the products that are lowest in saturated fat, total fat, sugar and salt. Avoid high fat spreads and try a little avocado, low fat mayonnaise, mustard or ricotta cheese instead.

Nutritious snacks Such as a small box or bag of dried fruit, rice cakes or unsalted and unsweetened popcorn. *Treats like chocolate or chips should only be included occasionally, not every day.
