Behaviour

Children's Behaviour 
We believe every child has the right to come to school happy and spend a pleasant day learning and playing without being interrupted or hassled. We have a no tolerance policy to bullying. We actively promote kind and considerate behaviour. So, if your child is not happy - let us know, and if your child is responsible for hassling or interrupting others’ learning, your support is expected to resolve the issue.
Restorative/Relational Practice

Restorative Practice is the primary tool used to change unwanted behaviour in children at our school. 
  • Restorative Practice focuses primarily on the repairing of damaged relationships, rather than punishment.
  • Restorative Practice seeks to heal and put right wrongs in a way that is constructive for both the person harmed and the person causing harm. 
  • Restorative Practice allows all affected parties (teachers, young people and parents, where appropriate) to engage in the process of problem solving and to determine what is needed to put things right.
  • Restorative Practice gives everyone the chance to tell their story. This allows people to understand the other person’s situation and in doing so builds empathy.
  • Restorative Practice encourages the person causing harm to recognise their obligations and responsibilities.
  • Restorative Practice allows the person harmed to move forward with confidence. 
  • Restorative Practice looks to reintegrate the person causing harm back into the school community in a positive way.
  • Restorative Practice addresses the root causes of harmful behaviour.
  • Restorative Practice aims to stop the behaviour re-occurring in both the short and long-term.
  • Restorative Practice builds and strengthens links between home and school.
