What Does Respect Mean at BSQ?

Respect at BSQ means creating an environment where every voice matters. It is about appreciating the uniqueness of each individual, understanding different perspectives, and working together to create a harmonious and supportive atmosphere. From the Early Years to Secondary, students are encouraged to treat each other with kindness and empathy, laying the foundation for positive relationships.

Our community believes that respect extends beyond the classroom. It includes caring for the environment, participating in community projects, and fostering a sense of responsibility for the wider world. These experiences help our students become compassionate, global citizens.
