At the end of 2018, we phased our our Gotcha Band System. This system was difficult to monitor, wasn't valued by our older students, was becoming inconsistent and relied heavily on an extrinsic reward instead of an intrinsic motivation.

This year we will introduce a 'Rainbow Award'. These will be awarded to 2 students from each class every term. These awards will be for those students who have consistently displayed our school values, working hard, being a good friend and promoting a place of harmony. There will be a special awards assembly held toward the end of each term where class teachers will present these awards to the students of their class. Parents will be notified via a letter home should their child be receiving a Rainbow Award prior to the assemby. At the end of the year, all students who have received one of these awards we have a celebration afternoon with Mr Webb and myself. 

Our Harmony Awards will continue, however these will be presented every Friday at morning assembly. Names of students receiving a Harmony Award will be published in the school newsletter for that week on Wednesday.
