At Hercules Road State School our goal is to provide a safe and nurturing environment in which all children can develop a love of learning and positive self-esteem, thus equipping them with the confidence needed to take risks in their learning. We believe that this can be achieved by following our rules and values, known as ‘The HERCS’.

Honesty - be honest always
Excellence - I am persistent and aim high
Resilience - I 'bounce back' when things go wrong
Community - I think of others
Safety - I behave in a safe way

Through the application of these rules and the use of positive behaviour management strategies, we encourage students to make responsible choices and assist them in learning to do this independently.
