Good Behaviour Rules for Grades 4, 5, 6


Our Good Behaviour Rules are there to make our stay at school happy and safe.  They help us respect ourselves, respect others, and respect our school environment.


a)      Punctuality is very important – school starts at 7.55 a.m.  Late comers with no valid reason will be sent to the Administration for an appropriate punishment.

b)      Regular attendance is important!  Signed absentee slips and/or medical certificates are to be handed in immediately on returning to school.

c)      Permission is needed to leave school in all circumstances.  Notes asking for permission and duly signed by parent/s/ guardian must be given to administration in time.  Parents/guardians are required to sign a special permission sheet to collect their daughters from school before 1.35 p.m.  Their ID card is necessary for this purpose.

d)   Full uniform must be worn to school except on days when students have a PE lesson when they wear their sports wear.  Jewellery is not allowed at school

e)      Courtesy, respect and obedience towards authority are qualities that make us develop into mature adults and good citizens!

f)       To get the greatest benefit from lessons, students must be prepared, pay attention and participate fully!

g)      Every student must have the necessary books/stationery for each lesson.

h)      Homework must be done carefully and regularly.  Students who are repeatedly reported for not doing their work will be called to the Head/Assistant Head’s office and their parents informed.

i)        Only school material should be brought to school.  To protect all students, the school has the right to confiscate any other items found in satchels/lockers or in the students’ possession.

j)        Mobile phones or electronic gadgets like iPods, MP3s, etc. are not allowed in school.  If found they will be confiscated.

In exceptional circumstances, e.g. illness, a girl may bring her mobile phone to school and leave it with the Administration at 7.50 a.m. to be collected at 1.35 p.m.

Telephone calls are not allowed except for very special reasons or emergencies and ONLY WITH THE PERMISSION of the Head or Assistant Heads.

k)      Bullying hurts both the victim and the bully.  The school has a zero tolerance policy against bullying.  Any bullying/intimidation, both physical and moral, as well as cyber bullying will be severely punished.

Winter Uniform: grey trousers/knee-length skirt and belt, striped shirt and tie-band, maroon sweater, maroon blazer, white socks, black rubber-soled shoes (casual, ballerina style not allowed).  Light beige school tights are allowed.  Water Proof Jacket (Maroon) and Quilted Jacket (Maroon) to be worn over the school blazer when necessary.

Summer Uniform: grey knee-length skirt and belt, summer beige top, white socks, black rubber-soled shoes.

Sportswear: white top, tracksuit trousers, white socks, white sports shoes, maroon shorts (summer), and grey polo neck, tracksuit, white socks, white sports shoes (winter).


The use of make-up and jewellery, except a watch and one pair of simple earrings in the form of studs, is prohibited  because they may be detrimental to the students’ safety as well as jarring within the school context.  Dyed hair, lights,  and/or heavily gelled hair are strictly not suitable as part of the school uniform.  Hair ornaments are to be kept to a minimum and be black or in the school uniform colours.


N.B.     – If, in exceptional circumstances, a student cannot come to school in uniform for a short period of time, a note explaining the reason must be written by the parents / guardians and addressed to the Head of School

- All items of uniform must be clearly marked with the student’s name and Grade / Form as items are often mislaid and, if not marked, they are difficult to return.
