An Important Notice Regarding Calm, Care & Respect

Dear Parents and care-givers,
 
At Dianella Secondary College we want your child to grow into becoming a well-regarded member of our community. It is vitally important that they spend their teenage years practicing being Calm, showing Care towards others and above all else, demonstrate  Respect, not only for their teachers and peers, but for themselves as well.
 
As they grow and develop their independence, they will be required to participate more in the broader community. How they are regarded by others largely depends on how they choose to conduct themselves. When they put on our uniform, they represent our school to our entire community. Their behaviour affects each and every one of us.
 
School is a valuable framework for how the world operates and we as teachers do everything that we can to prepare our children for the real world.
As such, it is important that students show up fresh and ready to learn each and every day that they are able to.
It will help if they:

• Have a good night's rest
• Have a solid breakfast before school (we have Breakfast Club before school every day, free of charge)
• Wear school uniform
• Show up on time and ready to learn

Also important is showing Calm and Care for one another. Play fighting (no matter how light), either at school on the oval, or outside of school grounds is against our code of conduct.
Any students seen play fighting will be disciplined accordingly.
 
Remember everyday matters and every moment counts. Please call the school for any support you may require.
 
Yours sincerely,
 
Wayne Austin
Principal
