SWPBS CELEBRATION DAY – HERO DAY

On Tuesday 15th September, Wayi School will be celebrating our Term 3 School Wide Positive Behaviour Support (SW-PBS) Celebration Day with a Hero Day!

This special day recognises and rewards the positive efforts students have made throughout the term in demonstrating our school values of Voice, Choice and Independence.

Students and staff are encouraged to come to school dressed up as their hero. It could be their favourite superhero, sports star, firefighter, legend or anyone who inspires them!

Throughout the day, students will have the opportunity to enjoy fun-filled activities with their peers as we celebrate another successful term together.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss the details of the day further, please feel free to contact the school on 7300 6600.

*Please note, the wearing of a costume is optional. Families are asked to provide alternate clothing for their child if they do not wish to remain in costume all day or would like the option to change during the day.

We look forward to celebrating with all students on this day!

We ask that all families log in to Compass to review and acknowledge their child’s SSG meeting minutes. A step-by-step guide to accessing and acknowledging the notes is attached.

Wayi School would also like to acknowledge the efforts families have made to connect with the school and teachers this term. We are pleased to share that 91% of families attended their SSG meeting, either in person or via phone. This strong level of engagement reflects our shared commitment to supporting the best possible outcomes for every student.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support.

We are inviting all parents, caregivers and guardians to take part in the 2026 Parent/Caregiver/Guardian Opinion Survey.

– Teaching practices for student engagement and outcomes – how our teaching supports students to engage, learn and achieve

– Attitudes towards school attendance – perspectives on the importance of regular school attendance

Why take part?

– It takes approximately 20 minutes to complete.

– The survey is open from Monday 17 August to Friday 18 September 2026.

– It can be completed online using a computer, tablet or smartphone.

– It is available in English and 10 additional languages.
