Health and Well-being
Our school philosophy aims to provide a safe, secure and caring environment, which allows for the development of adaptable, independent and confident students with high esteem.
The following principles are reflected in our code of conduct:
We believe all members of the school community have the right to work and learn in an environment that respects these rights and upholds the value of the individual. Teachers’ selective use of preventative strategies lessens the frequency, severity and escalation of inappropriate behaviours. A planned intervention program developed around choices and logical consequences is implemented at classroom and whole-school level to assist the behaviour education of students.
The following principles are reflected in our code of conduct:
- Adherence to and modelling of our Core Values and Beliefs – Respect, Integrity, Passion, Optimism and Trust.
