Student health and safety

We are committed to ensuring a safe and happy environment for your child.

Positive Behaviour for Learning

We are a Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) school and work with our school community to ensure student wellbeing is prioritised and supported in all spaces. Students are explicitly taught about our four school values of being Safe, Honest, Respectful and Excellent. We use this language in our daily activities to build positive relationships with peers, strong learning habits and a culture that celebrates success, achievement and effort.

Like all NSW public schools, we promote the healthy development of students through:

  • school programs and practices that protect and promote health and safety
  • supporting individual students who need help with health issues

Student wellbeing

Like all NSW public schools, we provide safe learning and teaching environments to encourage healthy, happy, successful and productive students.

The department is committed to creating quality learning opportunities for children and young people. These opportunities support wellbeing through positive and respectful relationships and fostering a sense of belonging to the school and community.

The Wellbeing Framework for Schools helps schools support the cognitive, physical, social, emotional and spiritual development of students and allows them to connect, succeed and thrive throughout their education.
