Manaakitanga

Settling back into class after the bell goes, knowing the expectations.


He waka eke noa - we're all in this together


We will achieve this by:

  • Going to the toilet at the start of our break

  • Going straight to class the moment the bell rings

  • Have our drink bottles in the classroom and not lining up at the drinking fountain after the bell

  • Remembering our classroom rules when we arrive in class and following them

  • Respecting our bell times and classmates who are waiting for us

  • Bringing any issues during breaks straight to a Duty Teacher at the time, not waiting until classroom time

  • Having our classroom equipment ready and tidy at all times

  • Knowing what we are doing after the break so we are ready for learning with whatever equipment our teacher told us to have out (if applicable)


Success Indicator:

  • We can start class on time and together as a team

  • Our class will be calmer and more controlled helping us to learn better

  • We will be thanked for arriving on time and ready to learn

  • We won’t be wasting time we could spend learning, or having other classroom fun time

  • We can continue to improve and develop our reputation in a positive way
