School Wide Positive Behaviour

The past fortnight’s positive behaviour focus has been ‘We listen to others at appropriate times.’

This focus has highlighted the importance of respectful and purposeful listening across all areas of school life. Students are expected to listen attentively during lessons, take turns in conversations, and show interest when others are speaking. This includes not interrupting, making eye contact, and using positive body language to show they are engaged.

Listening at appropriate times also means recognising when it’s time to contribute and when it’s more respectful to remain quiet and take in what others are saying, whether that be a teacher giving instructions or a peer sharing an idea.

By consistently practising these skills, students develop stronger communication, deeper empathy, and a greater sense of responsibility in their interactions. These expectations are an essential part of successful learning and help create a positive and inclusive school environment.

We look forward to continuing to reinforce these behaviours as students build confidence in their ability to listen with focus and respect.
