Respectful Relationships

CRCNK a Respectful Relationships School

As a Respectful Relationships school, we continue to work proactively with our students to create a safe, inclusive and predictable culture where respectful behaviours and positive relationships are explicitly taught and reinforced. We recognise that adolescence can be a challenging time for young people as they navigate their identity, peer relationships and the many mixed messages presented through social media and wider society.

Through our pastoral programs, House system, Mentor program and daily interactions with students, we aim to foster connection, belonging, resilience and self-worth. We work with students to develop respectful communication, empathy, responsibility and compassion towards others, while also encouraging them to make positive choices that support their overall wellbeing and engagement in learning.

At CRCNK, we know that students learn best when they feel respected, safe, connected and valued as members of our community. The work we do as a staff each day in reinforcing routines, expectations and respectful interactions plays an important role in strengthening our positive school culture and supporting students to flourish both socially and emotionally.
