WEEKEND ROUTINE

During Term 2, boarders have Sunday Ski Day from 8 00am to 5 00pm with the same evening routine in Term 1 and Terms 3

MOBILE PHONES & LAPTOPS

The school day is long and busy, and a good night’s sleep is very important to ensure that each boarder is well rested and ready for the day ahead For this reason, mobile phones and electronics are handed in overnight Years 6 to 9 hands them in to boarding staff at 9 15pm, and Years 10 to 11 at 9 45pm Years 12 to 13 do not need to hand their phones in at night However, if students fail to be on time for school commitments (particularly in the morning), they may be asked to hand in their devices If a compulsory early morning activity for Years 6 to 10 is run at the weekend, (such as Sunday skiing), electronics must be handed it the night before (half an hour later than during the week) The school has a mobile- free policy during school hours, so boarders must leave their phones in the boarding house from 8 10am until 3 50pm Each student is given a school email address when they join St George’s, along with access to the student WIFI network St George’s has a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policy and students from Year 8 onwards are required to bring their own laptops
