Term 3
SRC Meeting
Recently, the students of the SRC were consulted regarding the Concord School uniform. It was wonderful to get their opinions on why we should wear uniform, what items they like wearing and identifying any changes they would like to make. We will be using their feedback to inform any changes to our uniform policy.
Please enjoy the minutes of our meeting.
Supporting your Child to Stay Safe Online
While social media conflicts are most often not a school-based issue, we understand that these issues can impact the day-to-day lives of our students. Our school counsellors and teachers speak with students regularly about both the positive and negative experiences of social media use, but unfortunately there are limitations as to what staff can do to mitigate negative social media experiences without the crucial guidance, awareness and leadership of parents and carers in the home. Concord School educates students on the risks associated with social media use via our social competency curriculum.
Please find below some resources that can help you support your child to navigate being online.
