At East Taieri School we implement the Play Is The Way (PITW) programme. This programme has been designed to develop in students the skills that will help them to manage themselves, their relationships, and their work effectively and ethically.

Underpinning The Play Is The Way programme are five key concepts (Life Rafts). 
- Treat others as you would like them to treat you
- Be brave - participate to progress
- Pursue your personal best no matter who you work with - Have reasons for the things you say and do
- It takes great strength to be sensible 

Our focus liferaft this week is...
          It takes great strength to be sensible

The attached reading "Doing the right thing because it’s the best thing to do" is a reading that the East Taieri teachers have read recently.  It was an interesting read, with valuable information and advice.  We thought that our school community would find it valuable too.
