Yeppoon High operates under five core values: respect, participation, safety, honesty, responsibility.

These are at the heart of all that we do, and our goal is to help students develop a range of academic and personal strategies that will enable them to become active, informed and responsible citizens.

Arrangements for schools regarding Influenza H1N1 (Human Swine Flu)
As you may be aware, a decision has been made at a national level to introduce a range of additional measures to reduce the spread of Influenza H1N1 (Human Swine Flu). These measures are a response to the fact that Australia has moved from the Pandemic Influenza phase Delay to the current phase Contain. The key Government objective of the Contain phase is to limit the spread of the virus.

Students returning from overseas
Among these measures is an agreement that all states and territories move to excluding, for a seven-day period, school students from schools that are returning or arriving from the following overseas countries: Mexico, United States of America, Canada, Panama and Japan. This list can be found on the Department of Health and Ageing website: www.healthemergency.gov.au and is reviewed regularly in light of the current situation. In Queensland we are referring to this period as a seven-day timeout period.
