Learning about bullying at Hampden

Hampden continue to promote a safe school for all students and staff.  From our staff training session with Berry Street to more recently on our Pupil Free Day with Dan Petro, who specialises in behaviour management and reworking positive behaviours.

In the classroom we set behaviour expectations for staff and students displayed around the school.  As needed, we also target more specific conversations at assemblies and group conversations around the school as they happen.  

Teachers create individual safety plans with students to give them the power to stand up and be safe in the classroom. Classes participate in weekly respectful relationship lessons. 

Our VPC students are putting on a physical and mental health expo for the community in week 9 at Terang.
