Positive Behaviours for Learning
Fortnightly Focus
‘End of May, hats away. July has gone, hats back on!’
It is that time of the year where the students are asked to wear a sunsmart hat during break times and for PE lessons. To be clear – a sunsmart hat is either a bucket hat or a legionnaires hat, not a cap.
This is our focus for the next fortnight and we ask that you support by ensuring your child has a clearly labelled sunsmart hat for school each day. Some students like to keep these at school to ensure it is always here whilst others have a spot in their school bag where the hat lives.
We want all students to represent our school with pride and respect. Our shared uniform helps students feel a sense of belonging and connection to their community. It is also provides teaching opportunities around 'code switching', where students learn that different items of clothing are suitable for different purposes and locations, much like, how we speak changes if we are home with family or at school/work, in a meeting or spending time with friends. These are all important skills students need as they grow into young adults.
Together with our focus on SunSmart hats, the PBL team will be looking for the class or classes who are all most consistently in full school uniform each day. Congratulations Year 6 who were impeccably dressed in their Year 6 shirts and hoodies today. Leading by example for our younger students.
Yunggi Bengal Target
After achieving our 60,000 Yunggi Bengal target at the end of last term we are now working towards 90,000. The PBL team returned to our student voted reward options and have decided our next reward will be a "Yes" afternoon. The team are now hard at work planning what this will look like for staff and students.
