Reremoana School Student/Whanau Sports Code of Conduct 2023
Dear Parents/Guardians
We are asking all students and whanau to sign our Players’ Sports Code of Conduct. This code of conduct is guided by and reflects our school values and the Language of Learning, particularly Be Respectful. The code outlines what this looks like in a sporting environment.
We will all agree that sporting environments must be places where we show respect for ourselves and others. Sport also provides the context for our children to develop resilience and collaboration, and is a great opportunity for children to be a contributor (particularly in team sports).
We expect students to uphold our values during class, team or whole school sporting activities, as well as representative sporting occasions such as MPSSA, CCSA, AIMS Games and when playing extra curricular sports linked to our school. We will also be referring to the code when students are playing sport at lunchtime with friends, If students know and can independently uphold the code, it will give them more strategies to work through disagreements that can arise during informal games when an adult isn’t refereeing.
Like with our chromebook and cyber safety agreements, this is an opportunity to discuss with your child our school’s expectations. We are asking students to sign the Players’ Code of Conduct, and a parent to sign the Families’/Spectators’ Code of Conduct, to show they have read and have an understanding of our school’s expectations, and agree to uphold them.
Parents, teachers and other adults who take on coaching and/or managing roles will be asked to sign the Coaches’ Code of Conduct.
Kind regards
Julie Cowan
Principal
