Wellbeing & Culture
We recently did a Wellbeing survey to survey students in Year 3-6 and see how they were going. We were absolutely thrilled to hear that our overall scores were fantastic, almost everything was above national average and the reviewer commented on how any school would love the scores we received. Always a great thing to hear how well the students are doing and the programs that we are offering are obviously effective.
One interesting thing that was noted was the question of “Between 10pm and 6am how many students are regularly using devices.”
We were thrilled to hear that we were again doing much better than the national average for this question but nonetheless it still stated that out of the grade 6 students there were still 25% of students that are using some sort of device between 10pm and 6am.
So we have 104 Year 12 students. That means that ¼ or 1 full class of students are on their devices REGULARLY after 10pm until 6am. A very eye opening discovery!
