School is, and should be, a safe and
happy place to be. All children have the right to learn and no child
has the right to stop others from learning. We encourage children to
develop self-discipline by taking responsibility for their actions.
Children are encouraged to show respect for others' feelings, religion and
cultural backgrounds.
The school rules reflect the emphasis we
place on caring for each other.
The following rules outline the high
standards to behaviour expected in the classroom, in the playground, when
on outings and when travelling to and from school.
School Rules
- Be safe
- Do your best
- Respect others
- Talk and listen politely
- Care for our environment
Parents of children who persistently
disobey school rules will be notified. Assistance of the school
counsellor may be sought in helping the child overcome problems. However,
children and parents should be aware that the school will not hesitate to
enforce the suspension policy should the situation warrant such measures.
Examples of acceptable behaviours are
included on the behaviour grid below.
