Bullying. No Way! PBIS Blitz

 

At St Kilian’s, we pride ourselves in building strong relationships with parents/carers and families. We believe that working together as equal partners has a positive impact on all students. Research indicates that early school-based parent engagement is linked to improved self-regulated learning behaviours, an important individual factor in supporting school success.

 

Did you know that only 14% of learning is undertaken in the classroom, therefore the majority of learning is done either at home or in the community, usually with the parent/carer. The sharing of knowledge is vital in building a stronger connection between home and school and ultimately improving learning outcomes for all students.

 

Our PBIS Blitz for the first 3 weeks of term will focus on Bullying. No Way! The Rights, Resilience and Respectful Relationships program that is implemented across the school from Grades Prep to 6 has elements of this and we would like to highlight this further. 

 

Each week, classes will participate in Bullying. No Way! specific lessons from a variety of resources such as Kids Helpline, Daniel Morcombe Foundation & Bullying. No Way!

 

On Monday, 23rd October, everyone is invited to wear odd socks to school as a pledge that St Kilian’s does not accept bullying.
