Mobile phones, although a useful tool in some instances, can cause unnecessary interruption at school.
In conjunction with the P & C Association, the following policy was developed:
• Mobile phones may only be brought to school for emergency use or safety reasons.
• Mobile phones must be turned off at all times except for recess or lunch. There should be no use of a phone during class time or at any time in learning spaces such as the Library, Performance Space, kitchens, etc.
• Students who use mobile phones inappropriately will have sanctions imposed. Parents will be informed.
• The school will not allocate valuable resources to investigating lost or stolen mobile phones.
