Mary MacKillop School seeks to build healthy relationships between students, teachers and families.

You can help the school by: • Being a positive example to your child in attempting to reflect the ideals of the gospels. • Taking an active interest in the learning activities of your child. • Offering loyalty to Principal and staff. • Supporting and participating in the activities of the school and its community. School Rules Parents are asked to co-operate with teachers in reminding the children of the few regulations which exist at the school. The school anticipates the support of parents in this regard. The school prefers to have as few rules as possible emphasising the areas of: • Common sense • Respect for the rights and dignity of each individual. • The development of trust and responsibility. General rules are as follows: • If my action is likely to hurt another person or myself it is not permitted. • Children are not to be in the classroom at any time unless a teacher is present. • Stones, sticks, toy guns etc are not appropriate play things at school. • Children are not permitted to leave the playground in school hours without a parents written consent. • School equipment belongs to everybody at school. It should therefore be treated with respect. • Use the school crossing. • Bikes/scooters/rollerblades (and other wheeled modes of transport) are not to be ridden in the playground and are to be left alone during school hours.
