PBL (Positive Behaviour for Learning)
Our current behaviour focus is on student behaviour
during Assembly. Walking and lining up quietly with
their class, clapping respectively, not talking, showing
good listening manners, sitting still etc. Thank you to
the parents who attend and model appropriate behav-
iour for the students.
When Assembly is finished we ask that parents go to
their regular place of waiting (back gate, weather shed
etc.) This is to ensure all students return to class and
are accounted for in afternoon lines. If you really must
take your child early they need to be signed out in the
office. Thank you for your assistance.
PBL Reward Day -

note sent home in the last 5 weeks will be able to
