Big Boy Behaviour

Dear Parents,
we have been so grateful for your assistance in reminding your older children to stay with you and refrain from using the ELC toys and equipment when they come with you to pick up their younger brother or sister.
We now have one more favour to ask. We would like your help in reminding older siblings about appropriate behaviour in our front lobby. This problem has been escalating in the last term and we now regularly have large boys rolling on the couch, kicking the walls, shouting and running in the lobby. This behaviour is dangerous and inappropriate and does not set a good example to our young students who are aware of how to behave in this space. On a number of occasions staff have been forced to discipline preparatory students. Please help us by reminding older siblings to sit and wait patiently if you need to speak with Jeanine or Julie at the end of the day
Thankyou for your help
Regards
Mel Bishop
