SCHOOLWIDE POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR SUPPORT (SWPBS) FOCUS
At the moment our school is focussed on the school wide goal of waiting to take our turn during instructions or discussions and putting up our hands if we wish to join in. At the moment every class is keeping score of when people are allowing the speaker to talk, as well as when that doesn’t happen. When we chose this as our focus a couple of weeks ag,o we started with between 40 - 60 interruptions per day. We’re hoping to get down to 3 per day per class. One class has already doubled their tally of the positives of allowing the speaker to talk, to the negative tally of calling out. This is something we can do with everyone’s help. We are also encouraging all students to think of a whole school reward or treat when we make our target.

SCHOOL COUNCIL
Nomination forms are available from the office for the 2021 Winters Flat School Council. There are three parent/carer positions and two DE&T positions. Nominations close on Tuesday. This is a great way to get more involved in our school. This year we meet on the third Tuesday of the month and we will alternate our meetings between on-site at 6:00pm and Webex at 7:00pm. We’d love you to join us this year.

The role of Class Rep is one you might also like to consider. It’s a way to connect the families of your child’s class with each other, to organise social events as well as posting reminders about class and school events. Let your child’s teacher know if you’d like to be class rep for the class.
