APA News

As we reach the middle of the term, it is timely to review our school policies.  Our school website is a great place to find a variety of information, including our school policies (Link to School Website).

In particular this week, I aim to highlight the Personal Devices Policy (Link).  We have noted a number of students who are wearing smart watches that can have parental settings applied to “lock” the watch during school hours.  We do note that as per the school policy, these devices are still not to be worn at school.  We know some students love to track their movement throughout the doy, and there are a number of other options that can be used for this.  The Qld Government has also announced that from 2024 phones and smart devices will not be allowed in schools.  Now is a good time to begin to transition away from these devices.  If you have concerns, please feel free to reach out.
