Rewards and Celebrations

Our aim is for all children to be intrinsically motivated. We want all children to enjoy learning for the sake of learning.

We know that the best learners are people who:

• find relationships  

       This means finding connections or links in their learning and in the world around them. 

• show resilience

       They don't give up when the solution does not come easily

• are resourceful

        They are creative in finding solutions to problems. They find information to support them in their learning          and try different methods

• are reflective

        They think about their learning, the connections they have made, the solutions they have tried. They                  identify what they have done well and what could be better next time

It is nice to feel that your hard work is being recognised, so all staff spot children showing good behaviour or good learning behaviours and give them Blue and Golden Tickets in recognition of their achievements. 

From Year 1 to Year 6, when children are awarded an Archdeacon Way Award, they deliver these to the designated box in the school entrance hall. At the end of the month, we complete and Archdeacon Way Award draw in Collective Worship. The winners receive note from Ms van den Broek and a book token.
