At QMC the wellbeing of our students is always a priority. We have collated some informative resources to help parents.

Student Mobile Phones

Mobile phones, wearable devices and headphones are not to be used during the school day or at school events. We ask students to leave these at home, or switch to silent mode and leave them in their locked lockers. Significant research shows that limiting phone use during school hours promotes positive academic and wellbeing outcomes. Not only are students more engaged in their learning, but it also encourages healthy social interactions.

Dangerous Items

As per our school policy, we must ensure we keep our families informed about items we deem to be prohibited at school or at school events. We understand that our school community and the public expects us to provide an environment free from alcohol and drugs, and weapons.

Teachers can request the surrender of items that they have reasonable ground to believe the items will:

In the event a student surrenders an item in one of the categories above, be assured we would make immediate contact with you and talk next steps both in regards to the item and consequences for the student which would be based on the level of severity of the item. Be assured we always have the students’ wellbeing at the forefront of our actions.
