Responsibility, respect and resilience have joined reading, writing and arithmetic as a focus for students, staff, parents and the wider community.
To keep the new school values in focus, three 2.4 metre triangular architecturally-designed pillars bearing the values have been erected at the front of the school.
The words are lit at night, highlighting the importance of the values to the school and the community.
Principal Phil Gladman said the values had been decided on as a result of a revision of the school’s Student Engagement Program through consultation with students, school council, parents club and the community.
“Part of a new program has been the revision of school values and the introduction of three new school values,” he said.
Children whose behaviour and deeds reflect the school values are invited to take part in a school reward day each term, with a fun excursion to reward their positive behaviour.
