Our First Learners Achieve 50 Gotchas in PBL!

We are thrilled to announce a significant achievement in our Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) Program! Our first cohort of learners have reached an impressive milestone—earning 50 Gotchas! These Gotchas are awarded to learners who consistently demonstrate positive behaviours such as our school expectations of Safe, Respectful and Responsible.

This accomplishment highlights the hard work and dedication of our learners in creating a supportive and respectful learning environment. Every Gotcha reflects their commitment to not only meeting but exceeding the expectations of our PBL Program. 

As we celebrate this milestone, we look forward to seeing more students follow in their footsteps. Their success serves as a powerful reminder of the impact positive behaviours can have on both individual growth and our collective school culture.

A huge congratulations to our first group of learners for reaching 50 Gotchas!

Below are some photos of our leaders and our Gotcha winners at our first Gotcha pop-up shop!
