Welfare

We use school-wide systems of support that include pro-active strategies for defining, teaching and supporting appropriate student behaviours to create a positive school.

Positive behaviour support is an application of a behaviourally-based behaviour systems approach to enhance the capacity of the school community to improve the environments in which teaching and learning occurs.  Attention is focused on creating and sustaining systems of support that improve lifestyle results for all members of our school community by making problem behaviours less effective, efficient and relevant, and desired behaviours more functional. 

Student welfare initiatives and other programs across the school will assist students in enhancing their understanding of behaviour and that all behaviour choices lead to either positive or negative outcomes.

As a school community all staff take a pro-active approach to managing school behaviour by providing a supportive school environment where all students are valued and challenged by an appropriate learning environment and classroom curriculum that is exciting, meaningful and engaging.

Parents have joint responsibility with the school, for the education of their children.  They are responsible for ensuring their children attend school. They share in the responsibility of; shaping their children’s understanding and attitudes about acceptable behaviour and looking after the physical, social and emotional needs of their children so that they are ready and able to learn to the best of their ability when at school.
