Anti-Bullying School Wide Philosophy

All relationships within St Joseph’s are founded on the teaching of Jesus:

“LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS I HAVE LOVED YOU - LOVE GOD, LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR, LOVE YOURSELF.”

St Joseph’s Primary School aims to create a happy Christian atmosphere of care and concern for the individual, thus living out the Gospel values of love, justice, forgiveness, trust and respect.

The St Joseph’s Anti-Bullying Policy and our Mercy Values focus areas are designed to:

• Guide the children towards the development of self-discipline and acceptance of responsibility for his/her actions
• Develop the self concept of each child and therefore growth in positive, acceptable behaviours
• Grow in awareness and respect for others.
