Wellbeing – 2025 Mobile Phone Policy and Canteen Payment options
Mobile Phone Policy:
From 8:45 am to 3:05 pm (school hours), all mobile phones must be switched off, out of sight, and securely stored in lockers or school bags. Phones are not to be carried on a student’s person. Students will not be permitted to access their phones at any time during the school day.
For urgent communications between parents/carers and students, contact can be made directly through the front office via telephone or email. This policy will be strictly enforced by staff to support a focused and distraction-free learning environment.
Canteen: no digital pay from mobile phones:
As students will no longer have access to their mobile phones during school hours, they will need alternative methods for making purchases from the Canteen. Accepted payment options will include physical debit/credit cards or cash, as digital payment methods accessed via mobile phones will not be available.
Parents and carers are kindly asked to ensure suitable arrangements are made for their daughter if she intends to purchase items from the Canteen. These adjustments should align with your family’s preferences and be in place for the start of the school year.
