This term is flying by. Hopefully you are all coming out the other end of sorting 2023 staffing – what a mission! I really enjoyed the Sport Waikato Connections Day and am really excited to change up our 2023 Strategic Plan to reflect our learning.

When the adults change everything changes: Seismic shifts in school behaviour by Paul Dix
When the Adults Change, Everything Changes illustrates how, with their traditional sanction- and exclusion-led methods, the ‘punishment brigade’ are losing the argument. It outlines how each school can build authentic practice on a stable platform, resulting in shifts in daily rules and routines, in how we deal with the angriest learners, in restorative practice and in how we appreciate positive behaviour.

I am currently reading this book in my Book Club with a bunch of educators working in different fields of education. It is a stunning read with checklists at the end of each chapter – I love a checklist haha!
