2025 Chris Akkerman School Planning Engagement Presentation
Week Three – School Wide Collaborative Response – Theft in the school
A quick check in
Parents – have you labelled all of your child’s personal items? If you have, then, there are fewer things in the lost and found as items are returned to the person whose name is on the label.
Parents – please do not allow your child to bring in toys or personal items to the school. These things belong at home.
All classes have implemented the buddy system when kids leave the classroom. Also, you will be called should there be any need, when items are either lost or found.
