Yeronga State School Behaviour and Engagement Focus
Each week, Students across the school focus on a particular school rule and value to develop a consistent shared language and behaviour expectation across the whole school. An Inquiry approach is used to address behaviour concerns to allow students to feel connected to specific scenarios. Students have the opportunity to consider familiar school scenarios, and think about ways they can improve behaviour and engagement across the school. This week, as students returned to school after learning at home last week, we are focusing on being good communicators while lining up, getting us back into our school routines.
Yeronga Yabby Trophy
The Yeronga Yabby has recently replaced the ‘thumbs up awards’. Students receive a ‘Snap Snap’ from staff to recognise positive student behaviour aligned to our school rules and learner assets. When students receive ‘Snap Snaps’ during lunch or play times, these are collected in the junior and senior ‘aquariums’. Each week, the snap snaps are counted into class groups, and the class with the most receives the Yeronga Yabby Trophy on assembly.
3J was the first class to receive the Yeronga Yabby trophy in week 3 for the senior school. We wonder who will be this week’s recipient? The first junior Yeronga Yabby trophy will be awarded on assembly next week.
We have a stand in trophy while we get creative and make a Yeronga Yabby, so watch this space.
