At our school, a phone-free environment means fostering a space where students can focus on learning, engagement, and building real-world social connections without the distraction of mobile devices. By encouraging face-to-face interactions and reducing screen time, we aim to enhance attention, creativity, and well-being. This approach helps students develop essential life skills, free from the interruptions that phones often bring, creating a more connected and mindful community.
Our Secondary students lock their phones in a pouch the moment they come to school and can unlock it after the school day is over. Our phone-free policy also applies to staff, as we lead by example in creating a unified and connected community where learning and personal growth take center stage.
