2018 Annual Report 2 Keppel Sands State School
From the Principal
School overview
Keppel Sands State School is a small Prep to Year 6 school situated on the coast east of Rockhampton. The Keppel Sands community is a small but active community with many events involving the school and students. The school prides itself on being active within the community by attending events such as NAIDOC, Krabtastic, Keppel Sands Easter Markets, ANZAC Day and Rememberance Day.The school values each child's individuality and attempts to cater to the needs of each, offering extension or support as required. The close family atmosphere of the school allows the students to appreciate the development of the younger students and the role models set by the older students. The school prides itself on offering all students as many opportunities as possible with a focus on developing well mannered and interactive leaders of the future.
The students are heavily involved in their STEM project which incorporates the creation of a vergetable garden each year. Students then take their produce and develop recipies to be cooked and served at a lunch for the community. In a shared, on-going project with the Rockhampton Regional Council students are learning about sustainability and their environment. Being on Durumbal land we acknowledge and value our elders and participate in cultural activities to help our students both indigineous and non-indigenous to understand our land and where we have come from. Due to the remoteness of the community to sporting facilities, the school provides sports coaching and physical improvement through the Commonwealth Government's Active After-School Communities. Staff provide after school activities once a week to help engage students in extra-curricula activities. We have developed an eKindy pod and believe having our students attend kindy prior to starting school is key to successful school transitions and engagement.

How information and communication technologies are used to assist learning
In 2018 Keppel Sands State School made some significant progress towards ensuring its students are active and adept at using ICT’s. All classrooms now have an Activpanel that allows both staff and students to interact with their learning. Students use computers to complete assessments, research projects and to access some learning sites. The younger students engage in the Reading Eggs program whilst the older students are becoming skilled in all Microsoft programs. These programs will help set them up for future studies and job prospects. Students engage with the iPads to conduct research, create movies and photo stories. An Apple Mac Mini enables easy management of our iPads and the use of Mac programs. All staff have are issued with an iPad to use in the classroom for assessment tasks, learning activities, extension, learning support, research, teaching and instruction and as a planning tool. The use of ICT’s has been embedded into our practice as teachers, and students are becoming more familiar with all aspects of this technology which allows a modern approach to education.
Social climate
Overview
Keppel Sands State School provides a safe, active environment in which its students can develop and learn. The close knit nature of the school ensures that a personalised approach to education and social skills is evident.
The school is supported by a small but active P&C association who are responsible for fundraising and collaborating with the school. The welfare of the students is not only the responsibility of the teaching staff but also of the chaplain whose primary responsibility is the students’ emotional wellbeing. The chaplain helps to provide social and wellbeing programs as well as the Shine program which helps our senior ladies to develop good hygiene habits and to believe that they are all worthy and beautiful. The school works with the community to bridge the gap between community and school. This enables the school to access resources from the community and visa versa. The school works hard to include parents, care givers and community members in all school events and encourages all stakeholders to become a part of the school.
Keppel Sands behaviour policy gives clear guidelines to characteristics that are acceptable at our school. The school’s simple policy; Respectful, Responsible, Safe makes it easy to follow and results in the positive behaviour. In addition, the establishment of three key school values underpins our approach to behaviour management. At Keppel Sands State School bullying in all its forms is not accepted or tolerated and all members of the Keppel Sands School community accept their responsibility to promote positive relationships through role-modelling, education and positive actions. Keppel Sands State School and its associated community show a zero tolerance towards bullying. In addition, we also set a clear set of rules and focus strongly upon prevention through positive role modelling and the encouragement of shared responsible behaviour. Reports of bullying will be investigated and acted upon immediately. Responses to bullying might include targeted support for victims and perpetrators and/or sanctions or consequences consistent with the Responsible Behaviour Plan for Students.
A change in Principal in 2018 created many changes for Keppel Sands State School and these changes took a considerable amount of time to develop and be accepted by the parents and community. 2018 was a year of change and many new and exciting projects and programs were implemented. These projects and programs will take time to be fully embedded and accepted in the school. The opinion survey reflects the time of change and the uncertainty for parents and community. By the end of 2018 these changes were starting to be accepted and the parents and community members could see that they were changing the school for the better.

Parent and community engagement
At Keppel Sands, the small nature of the school means that school and parent relationships are crucial to the success of our students. In 2018 the school focused strongly on providing parents with a range of information and the offering of opportunities to engage in the school. This was achieved through regular newsletters sent home to parents and care givers providing information on all school activities. The implementation of the school’s Facebook page provides reminders and celebrates the school’s achievements. Regular texts are sent to parents to inform them how their children are going and to send photos of events and activities. The introduction of the postcard which is sent home to parents celebrating their child’s achievements. Each term school holds an event in which all parents and community members are invited into the school to help celebrate the student’s achievements. Three-way-reporting each semester helps keep both parents and students informed of the child’s academic progress.
The P&C is heavily involved and very supportive of the school, offering support to the school and students whenever possible. A trailer was purchased in 2018 to begin the Recycle for Cash project. The Keppel Sands community work closely with the P & C to help collect the cans for the school. A large garden enclosure was organised by the P & C to be built to enable the students to create their vegetable gardens without the wildlife being able to ruin it.
The school hosts playgroup each fortnight. Community members bring their children to playgroup to engage in a
variety of activities to help social and emotional interaction with other students.
Respectful relationships education programs
The school has developed and implemented programs that focus on appropriate, respectful and healthy relationships for all students and staff, the wellbeing of the whole school community includes students, staff, parents, care givers and community members. Being a small community is vital to teach students the importance of safe and secure practices as well as respectful and responsible attitudes.
In 2018 we implemented the following programs:-
Bravehearts
RACQ Road safety
Shine program for girls in years 5 & 6
Say No to Bullying
Day for Daniel
The three schools rules ‘Be Safe, Be Respectful and Be Responsible’ are integrated into each and every day. All students understand the importance of these three rules, and how these rules set them up to be respectful community members. Manners and respectful conversations and communication is pinnacle to the students’ daily interactions with their peers, staff, parents and community. Through various events such as the STEM lunch students are taught the correct way to greet adults and how to respectfully interact with others.

Environmental footprint
Reducing this school’s environmental footprint
Data is sourced from school's annual utilities return and is reliant on the accuracy of these returns.
In 2012, the school was fitted with $30,000 worth of solar panels to our classroom. In addition, a strong focus on power saving behaviour was initiated. The school also has utilised a worm farm to assist with minimizing wastage and using shredded paper to line our gardens. Shredded paper and cardboard is also used in the vegetable gardens to help control weeds and create mulch. In 2018, the cash for cans recycling program began at Keppel Sands SS which has seen a significant reduction in waste that is being taken to landfill. Every effort has been made to instil good practices in the students and staff and to encourage responsibility and care when it comes to power and water usage. All students understand the recycling program and are encouraged to use recycling wherever possible.
