Please make sure the water taps are turned off when you leave the

bathroom and keep the floor clean and dry. If it is wet let the office know.

CIRCLE TIME

At Trinity we use "Circle Time" to develop skills in listening, understanding and empathy. Circle Time promotes respect for others, their opinions and engages students in knowing more about one another and building positive relationships within the class and with their teacher.

Students are guided by prompts and questions to consider topics such as our school values, exclusion, inclusion, gratitude, responsibility, fairness, safety and community.

It is also a way for students to share news, celebrate events and congratulate each other.

Circle Time is scheduled daily in each classroom and we believe encourages a more caring atmosphere at our school.

Circle Time is also an opportunity to share ideas, ask questions or raise concerns in class that can be followed up at the class meeting.

There can be questions asked during Circle Time that are just for fun such as:

"Would you rather..." Would you rather swim like a fish or fly like a bird?

"What's your favourite..."

"If you.." If you could be an animal what would you be?

"...or...?" Beach or farm? Winter or Summer?

Questions and prompts would be age appropriate and it is always interesting to hear the responses given bystudents!

Circle Time has three expectations that each student needs to follow:

Only one person should speak - the “talking object” helps this rule
You can "pass" if you don’t want to speak about something
No put downs
