Our School Values

We are learners who are

safe
responsible
friendly
respectful

Students are explicitly taught our values and to demonstrate these values across the school.

We refer to the values across our school community and it is exciting to hear students talking about our values as part of their school experience.

PBS SCHOOL SHOP
As an incentive for demonstrating our school values and positive behaviour we have established the school shop. The students earn tickets and use these tickets to buy items in the shop.
