We are committed to ensuring a safe and happy environment for your child.
We support your child’s health and safety through a range of strategies including:
Like all NSW public schools, we promote the healthy development of students through:
school programs and practices that protect and promote health and safety
supporting individual students who need help with health issues
providing first aid and temporary care of students who become unwell or who have an accident at school.
Kogarah Diagnostic and Assessment Service hold medical clinics at Bates Drive School twice each term. The purpose of the clinics is to support the health and behavioural needs of our students as well as to provide a collaborative approach to the management of these issues.
The clinic is attended by a developmental paediatrician, a registrar, a member of the school executive, the classroom teacher and parents/carers.
An appointment must be made prior to the date of the clinic to ensure your child will be seen on that day.
The medical clinics provide the opportunity to discuss any issues or problems you may be facing with your child at either home or school. The cost of the appointment is covered by Medicare.
Like all NSW public schools, we provide safe learning and teaching environments to encourage healthy, happy, successful and productive students.
The department is committed to creating quality learning opportunities for children and young people. These opportunities support wellbeing through positive and respectful relationships and fostering a sense of belonging to the school and community.
The Wellbeing Framework for Schools helps schools support the cognitive, physical, social, emotional and spiritual development of students and allow them to connect, succeed and thrive throughout their education.
At our school, we use Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) – a whole-school approach for creating a positive, safe and supportive school climate where students can learn and develop. Our whole school community works together to establish expected behaviours and teach them to all students.
Our core values are ‘we care', ‘we are safe' and ‘we are learners'. The behaviour expectations that align with each of these values are clearly displayed, communicated, modelled and explicitly taught across all environments
