In Term 3, the Year 1 Wellbeing curriculum will integrate the Resilience, Rights and Respectful Relationships (RRRR) Program with the Visible Wellbeing Framework.

If you are seeking further information regarding this unit please contact our Wellbeing Learning Specialist, Madeleine Paslis, or Assistant Principal, Amanda Howe.

Visible Wellbeing

In addition to our focus on gender norms and stereotypes, students will be engaging with the Visible Wellbeing unit ‘Habits and Goals’. This unit aims to support positive wellbeing and encourage a healthy outlook on life. Students will learn how to set meaningful goals, recognise unhelpful habits, and develop new, constructive ones.

Positive Classroom Management Strategies (PCMS)

A significant effort has also been made to promote expected behaviours and fair play in the schoolyard. The Year 1 cohort has played an active role in establishing a shared set of rules and expectations for the areas commonly visited during recess and lunch, including the sandpit, the oval, the basketball courts, the middle asphalt area and the front playground. In collaboration with the students, a clear set of expectations has been developed. These expectations have been discussed, refined together, and will be displayed in the shared area outside our classrooms for easy reference. To support understanding and consistency, students will have opportunities to practise these expectations outside at recess and lunchtime and reflect on them during our regular circle time discussions.
