SWPBS

Across the school, we place a strong emphasis on consistent routines and clear expectations, as these provide students with a sense of security and confidence and help them to be ready to learn. Consistent routines also support students in developing independence, responsibility, and effective learning habits that extend well beyond the classroom.

Creating calm, orderly learning environments strengthens all students’ ability to self-regulate, engage positively with peers, and persevere when learning becomes challenging.

Late Term 1, we were advised that we have been awarded GOLD LEVEL for School Wide Positive Behaviour Systems (SWPBS) for the third year in a row. There is a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes, including staff professional development, analysing student data, teaching students about expected behaviours, and awarding students positive behaviour credits for displaying them.

Below is a Term 1 credit update, organised by our four overarching expected behaviours and Year Level.

 At the beginning of Term 1, the Year Level teams decided on eight focused behaviour expectations they wanted to see across the school. In bold are the total number of credits given for each of these behaviours.

Staff are encouraged each week to issue credits to students, which they can use at the weekly X-Change for canteen vouchers, time with the animals, and stationery items. You can look at Compass to view your child’s credit total at any time.
