Student Wellbeing

SWPBS update.

Courtenay Gardens Primary School is a SWPBS (School Wide Positive Behaviour Support) school 😊

Our new school values were introduced during the week 4 Term 1 assembly. Students enjoyed seeing them represented as larger-than-life characters.

In line with our aims to implement a school-wide positive behaviour system, CGPS has recently focused on the way we move around the school. Students were introduced to the new transition poster which outlines how they can show the school values as they move between classes. Our aim is to encourage moving around the school safely and quietly to minimise disturbances to others’ learning. For Term 2, our first focus will be the expectations of behaviour when outside during recess and lunch.

We are also encouraging students to display the school values and have begun to give out positive recognition of those that do so. Our new STARS bands have been a hit and students enjoy being rewarded with a flashy wristband when they are showing our CGPS values in the yard. Students that receive a wristband also have their name put into a raffle and could win a prize if their name is drawn out at assembly!
