Recycling Soft Plastics

In the last fortnight, we have introduced new silver bins across the school to reduce the amount of waste that goes into landfill. These bins are used to recycle soft plastics and hopefully reduce the amount of rubbish around our playground, too. To help with this, our SRC have reintroduced Waste Free Wednesday, where students are encouraged to bring a waste free lunch. Each week, the K-2 and 3-6 class with the least amount of rubbish will get PBL raffle tickets! 

School Uniform and Hats

A gentle reminder that our school uniform (including socks and hats) is endorsed by our P&C and is part of PBL. Please ensure your child is wearing their school uniform each day. Please contact your child's teacher or the office if assistance is needed.

Positive Behaviour for Learning 

Positive Behaviour for Learning, known as PBL, is an evidence-based whole school systems approach that:

• addresses the diverse academic and social needs of every student to support them to be successful.
• supports students in early childhood settings through to senior years of schooling.
• enables schools to establish a continuum of supports that are intensified to meet the needs of every student.
• is team driven, using a problem solving approach (data, systems and practices) that engages students, parents and all school staff.
• establishes positive social expectations for all in the school community.
• provides a framework for the school and its community to collectively support the wellbeing of every student.

When implemented well:

• students respond positively as they have been taught what is expected of them.
• staff deliver consistent responses to student learning and behaviour.
• students feel safe and cared for at school. Their parents, family and community are more involved in their school.
• unproductive and challenging behaviour can be significantly reduced for most students.
