Some children may be required to complete unfinished class work at home. In Years 1, 2 and 3 set homework could be up to but generally not more than one hour per week. Homework in Year 4 and Year 5 could be up to but generally not more than two to three hours per week. Homework in Year 6 and Year 7 could be up to but generally not more than three to four hours per week. 14
Strive to Achieve 9. Behaviour Management A major objective of our school code is to develop self-discipline in each individual and an awareness of the effect of each person's behaviour on others. Rules are developed with a conscious concern for safety, tolerance, respect for and consideration of others. The school has a Code of Behaviour and a Responsible Behaviour Management Plan for students that outlines available support to help children manage their own behaviour. 10. Religious <strong>Education</strong> Classes are taken regularly by visiting instructors from a number of denominations. Parents who do not wish their children to participate in these classes are requested to notify the class teacher in writing. Alternative arrangements will be made for these students during Religious <strong>Education</strong> lessons. A fee is requested annually for set resources. 11.
