Safe and Caring Schools

The Safe and Caring theme for April is

"The Power to Choose"

Making good choices is an important and essential skill for students to learn. Today's youth are constantly challenged and tempted. They have more opportunities to get into trouble than ever before. To thrive, they need to be taught to be responsible for their actions and to make the right choices.
