A great day starts with a great breakfast

Good morning,

Seeing something wrong and staying quiet helps the person doing the harm, not the person being hurt. Check in, call it out, tell someone, because your voice matters more than you think.

A kind school is a safe school.

PBL Focus of the Week – RESPECT

At Woodcrest State College this week, students are focusing on the importance of following directions the first time, every time.

Following directions helps to keep everyone safe, supports a positive learning environment and demonstrates respect for staff and peers.

We encourage families to reinforce this message at home by reminding students to:
👂 Listen carefully
💬 Respond respectfully
✅ Follow directions promptly

By working together, we can support consistency between school and home and help our students demonstrate Respect, Responsibility and Resilience every day.

🎉 Congratulations! 🎉
