STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES

Everyone is responsible for maintaining a safe and healthy school environment. 

Remember what it says in the list of Student Rights and Responsibilities.  If you notice anything faulty or dangerous, or potentially dangerous, you must report it immediately to a staff member: your class teacher, your Student Adviser, a teacher on playground duty, one of the Deputy Principals, the Principal, or someone in the front office. 

This applies to all defects in school equipment and hazards in the buildings and grounds.

ACCIDENTS

If you have an accident at school or at sport, you must report it to the nearest teacher. You may be asked to write the details of the accident on an accident report form. 

EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

A continuous ‘beep beep’ siren indicates an emergency evacuation. You need to be calm at all times, follow all your teacher’s instructions and move quickly to the allocated area at the back of the school. You will need to line up with your roll group so that the rolls can be marked easily. When the ‘all clear’ is given, you will be instructed to return to your classroom.

An intermittent ‘whoop-whoop’ siren indicates an emergency lockdown. This is the opposite of an evacuation. You will need to be calm at all times, follow all your teacher’s instructions and stay in the classroom until the ‘all clear’ is given.
