Kio Kio School Values

At Kio Kio School we have values that are firmly embedded in the 'way we do things here.' These values are celebrated through classroom discussions and displays, in the playground, through assemblies and newsletters, and in our classroom blogs.

To start the school year we have had a special focus on respect and what it looks like, sounds like and feels like in action. As a staff we brainstormed and created a wordle to define what we think respect is about. Teachers and students have shown their thinking about respect in a wide range of ways- photos, video, charts, pictures, writing.  A group of students took photos one lunchtime to show how respect is widely evident in the playground.
