Mobile Phone Use

• Students do not use their phones in school, unless specified by their teacher for educational purposes. 
• Student phones are turned off when they arrive at school. Parents can contact the school if they need to pass on a message to their child. 
• If children are seen not complying to this rule, their phone will be confiscated and parents notified. 
• Taking pictures or videos of others without their consent at any time is strictly forbidden. 
• Students will be instructed to go directly home at the end of school, unless otherwise specified by parents. Students are not to gather at augmented reality spots that may cause distress to people in the general community, or lead them to enter private property (referencing games such as Pokemon Go).

Smart Watches Use

•  Smart watches must be switched off or set to school mode during school hours.

• Any clothing denoting gang affiliation
• Caps and hats indoors
• Loose or hanging jewellery is discouraged (for safety reasons)

Clothing should be appropriate for an active school day.

·         Violence

·         Substance abuse

·         Inappropriate sexual behaviour

There is no smoking allowed on the school premises. This is relevant to all members of the school community.
