Behaviour in Boys’ Toilets

We would appreciate your support in addressing the ongoing ‘games’ in the boys’ toilets.  In the last few months boys are deliberately flooding the floors by blocking up the sinks and leaving taps running, sticking wet paper towels onto the walls and ceilings and deliberately blocking toilets with paper towels and other non-organic objects.

This behaviour causes a huge amount of extra work for our Groundsman, Mr Ware and cleaners daily.  There is also a financial cost to this behaviour and it leaves our toilets out of use for other students. 

Please discuss this matter with your son/sons and encourage him/them to let me know if they have seen any other students engaging in this type of behaviour. 

Life Education

During the year 3 life education session, students experienced TAMe technology (Electronic, Transparent, Anatomical Model). This software tool included 3D and augmented reality fly-throughs of the human body. It is designed to teach children about the workings of the human body and to create an exciting and deeper learning experience for children. TAMe provides a memorable experience to encourage learning and understanding. Our students really enjoyed this activity.
