Student Expectations


Student Behaviour Expectations Policy


General school rules ensure that our students are safe and equipment is respected. Sensible and respectful behaviour is expected when in classrooms, the playground, on excursions and when using public transport. School property, and property belonging to others, must be respected and should be cared for properly. Students will be required to clean, replace or pay for any deliberate damage

The fundamental expectation governing student conduct is that each student should behave in a manner that respects others. Students are expected to treat others in the manner they would wish to be treated themselves. The best possible conduct is expected from all students at all times. Poor behaviour cannot be accepted. Students are expected to behave appropriately as ambassadors of the School and country (if travelling overseas). Uniform policies must be adhered to at all times.

While on an excursion or school visit, students are expected to be courteous, punctual and obedient to instructions given by their instructors and are expected to attend all classes and planned activities. Students must inform staff of all movements and follow the safety requirements for all activities.

Prohibited Items

The following items must not be brought onto the School campus, on excursions or to any School event at any time: 

  • Alcohol, tobacco, drugs, cigarette lighters, vapes or any illegal substance
  • Weapons, any other projectiles or any item designed to shock or injure other students
  • Medications (both prescription & non-prescription) that have not been approved for self-administration

Students in Primary School are asked to follow three basic understandings when in our playground and classrooms. This will ensure that our school is safe and fun for all: 

I care for others

I am a responsible citizen

I am an excellent learner


In all circumstances, behaviour that is not in accord with St Columba Anglican School expectations will be met with appropriate disciplinary action by the attending staff. For more detailed information, please see our School Policies and Procedures.
