Welcome to Deception Bay North State School (DBNSS), where our motto is 'Pride in Achievement'. I am proud to lead an amazing team who play an essential role in the Deception Bay community. Preparing our students to develop their skills which will enable them on a pathway towards a chance at a 'life of choice' has been our moral purpose. DBNSS community expectations are: I am Respectful, I am Responsible, I am Resilient, I am a Learner. We model and teach these expectations in our classrooms and playgrounds and support students to develop a positive outlook that includes having a growth mindset, being problem solvers and being responsible for their own actions.
Our school is a Positive Behaviour for Learning community and works collaboratively to develop students' understanding of brain function (Neuroscience) to develop self-regulation skills to improve success with learning. We work collaboratively with the Deception Bay Community organisations; including our P&C, all parents, to ensure our students can be the best they can be. Parents are welcome to attend a large number of special events including sports days, book week, under 8's days, transition days, student led conferences, art and performance nights, community breakfasts, morning teas, NAIDOC and ANZAC day. Parents are also encouraged to assist in class if they are able to.
Every day counts if we are to ensure our students achieve success parents and carers must ensure their students attend every day, they are well enough to do so.
I look forward to our productive partnerships to support our students' growth to strengthen our effective school community and our students' future. Our 2024 Explicit Improvement Agenda is below.
