The new Safe and Respectful school posters

This term, our school is part of an initative to strengthen respect for all our students and staff.  The Addressing Occupational Violence campaign is being launched with posters that remind everyone to aleays treat our students and staff with kindness and respect, and that aggressive behaviour of any type will not be tolerated at school.

We value our partnerships with you to support every student to learn, grow, and belong.  It is up to us - the school and the parent-body-to be good respectful role models to our students.  Together, we can create a safe and harmonious environment for our students and staff.

Please join us in supporting this work to create a positive change.

Check out the new posters at school and if you have any questions or would like to discuss further, please make contact with the school.
