No school can function successfully, harmoniously, and happily, without discipline and order. It is therefore expected that students at this school will demonstrate such deportment and behaviour as this will enhance their own self esteem and uplift the school's standing in the community in which we live.
Wahroonga Adventist School has a comprehensive discipline policy which complies with the NSW Education Reform amendment, 1995. The focus of the discipline policy is to achieve excellence in behaviour through positive discipline procedures. Whilst at school each pupil is expected to do his/her best in all aspects of the school programme, be that academic, physical, spiritual or social. Orderly conduct is expected at all times, including travelling to and from school. Coarse and noisy behaviour is contrary to Christian standards. Students who disobey school rules will be given an in school detention. If a student displays inappropriate behaviours their parents will be notified immediately. A record is kept of all discipline issues that may arise. The school’s Discipline Committee may be called to determine appropriate strategies if a student continually misbehaves. AWARD SCHEMEChildren earn behaviour points for good attitude and behaviour, thus enabling them to work towards special certificates and medals. A tally is kept of each child’s points as they progress through the school. The awards are presented during our Chapel time. Bronze Certificate - 25 points Bronze Medallion - 125 points Silver Certificate - 50 points Silver Medallion - 150 points Gold Certificate -100 points Gold Medallion - 200 points
