It is broadly recognised that including children in the process of making rules encourages them to feel a sense of ownership so there is a good chance they will respect the rules. Most importantly, keep rules short and positive. A maximum of three to five usually covers everything. To be positive, consider re-framing rules: for example “Don’t hit” could be re-framed “Be kind to each other” or “keep your hands and feet to yourself”. The following website was consulted during construction of this page: http://raisingchildren.net.au/articles/family_rules.html http://raisingchildren.net.au/articles/family_rules.html You may be surprised how insightful children can be when brainstorming suitable rules for any environment.

The High Five Poster is used at Albany Creek State School as a strategy to help students respond appropriately to negative social situations. Each of the five steps could be followed in sequence. However, if any student were to feel unsafe it is expected that they would report to a teacher for immediate support. You can help your child by talking about the High Five steps. Ask them what they can do if they feel bullied, for example. Help them to role-play possible solutions to problems. Remember your child needs to know that you trust them to be able to solve their problems and that they can talk to you any time if they need support.
