The Wynberg Way
BEHAVIOUR – THE WYNBERG GIRLS’ HIGH WAY
At Wynberg we will take ownership of our choices and we will behave in a way that:
- Shows respect for everyone
- Creates an environment in which teaching and learning can take place
- Ensures that all visitors and members of the Wynberg family continue to view our school as one with positive values and exemplary behaviour.
In the classroom we will:
- Enter the class and stand until greeted by the teacher and given permission to sit.
- Bring all books and complete all homework and assignments on time.
- In behaviour and speech, interact appropriately with teachers and learners.
- Remain seated, unless given permission to leave seat.
- Pay attention to the lesson and allow one person to speak at a time, unless total silence is required.
- Complete our own work unless permission is given to work as a group has been given by the teacher.
- Stand and greet another teacher/visitor who enters the classroom.
- Listen to announcements and pack away books and equipment only when instructed by the teacher.
- Stand and leave the class only when dismissed by the teacher.
In the school and grounds, we will:
- Walk on the left hand side of the passage and stairs.
- Allow members of staff and visitors to make their way unhindered through the corridors.
- Greet all visitors to our school and offer them assistance in reporting to the school office.
In assembly, we will:
- Enter in classes, in complete silence and in an orderly way.
- Remain standing until greeted by the teacher and given permission to sit.
- Remain quiet during assembly.
- Face the front and not distract other learners.
