Rationale:
In light of the need for students to be more mindful of attending school during the current Covid-19 climate, this amendment to the Code of Behaviour Policy is required so that students will be aware of specific rules on their return to school. Our guiding principle when making any changes or adjustments to this policy is to be able to keep all of our students, families and staff safe. These amendments will be communicated to students, parents and staff.
Note to Parents/Guardians:
Parents/Guardians are required to observe and respect all social distancing protocols in relation to any contact with the school. This includes maintaining a two-metre distance to other families when dropping off or collecting their children from the school and any contact with the school. All visits to the school are required to be made by appointment through the school office.
Behaviour Expectations:
Our school requires every member of the school community to observe and respect the principles of social distancing, cough and sneeze etiquette and make every effort to minimise risk to oneself and others. This requires us to modify some of our behaviours which include;
- amended expectations about breaks or play/lunch times, including where students may or may not congregate
- clear rules about coughing or spitting at or towards any other person

Wellbeing and Social and Emotional Learning:
Our school will provide a safe and pleasant environment and spend a considerable amount of time liaising with students on promoting their wellbeing. This will include;
- Curriculum changes to support students during SPHE, PE and CSPE classes

Students are expected to:
- Arrive to and depart from school premises at agreed time
