St. Mary's school norms 2018
 

At the start of each year each class looks at expectations to assist all students and staff to have a positive time at school. 
These Norms are used to set agreed behaviours and to discuss appropriateness of actions throughout the day. 
This year it was agreed to look at all class norms and set five whole school norms to be followed by all at St. Mary's in the classrooms and yard. 

At St Mary's School we are called to follow Jesus by: 
  • being a responsible learner
  • being fair
  • being respectful
  • accepting everone's difference 
  • being forgiving
During Term Two we are focusing on each Norm for two weeks and will then revisit them throughout the year. 
The focus commences on Monday at Assembly and is incorporated into the prayer and a whole school activity. 
​The first norm being focused on is ' Accepting everyone's difference'. 
Details will be placed on the weekly Newsletter regarding shared activities. 
During Weeks Five and Six at the Monday Assembly the focus was on Respect. After prayer the whole school activity was on listening to a rap on Respect and then working in small groups writing a verse to share with the students and staff. 

RESPECT
Yes I know Respect is the thing to do
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
I always treat my friends like I hope they treat me.
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Treating everybody respectfully.

 
Well I went outside feeling angry at my friend
Because he beat me in a game at the very end.
I wanted to hit him because I was mad
But I decided not to hit him as it would make everyone sad.
Nicholas Toby Texas Daniel Sophie Zachariah and Marnie
 
Well I was in the swimming pool and what did I see
someone standing on the edge of the pool
I wanted to push them in to a make a big splash and make them look like a fool
But I respected their choice and did not push them in.    
Leo Hannah Ethan Lyric Elijah and Lithil
 
Well I was playing basketball and what did I see
Someone was wanting to join in with me
I wanted him to go away
But I decided to just let him play
Finn Charli Jaya Marty Libby and Nate
 
Well I looked in my friend’s lunchbox and what did I see
Three delicious donuts that looked so yummy
I wanted to eat them ‘cause I was so hungry but all I had was a very yucky curry
But I left them alone and ate my last night’s tea.
I did it the respectful way.
Chloe Charli Delilah John Jasper and Ellie

Well I wanted to go on the big swings
But what did I see
There was some big bully hogging it like a king
I wanted to push him off the swings and tell him to go home and tell him to never come again.
But I thought that it would be unfair so I went to the baby swing instead.
Jacob Zac Mellings Charlotte Piper Parker Darnell and River
 
Well I was in the bathroom and what did I see
I saw a tap that was on. Did the janitor even see.
I wanted to leave it on
But I know that was wrong
So I decided to turn the tap off.
 Zac Griffiths Geordie Lachlan Shaine Skye Patience
 
Well I was let out at Recess and what did I see
A racquet shining and looking at me.
 I wanted to run and get it first
But I didn’t run because I know that we’re not allowed to .
Brianna Ben Cameron Kaillie Victory Nullah
 
RESPECT
Yes I know Respect is the thing to do
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
I always treat my friends like I hope they treat me.
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Treating everybody respectfully.
