REWARDS
An effective praise system is in place for Years 7-13.

- Hardworking: (of a person) tending to work with energy, commitment and diligence
- Resilience: be determined to never give up, regardless of setbacks. To look for solutions when facing a problem.
- Welcoming: We recognise and celebrate diversity while being friendly considerate and welcoming to all.
- Respect: have due regard for (someone’s feelings, wishes, or rights)
