Rewards and Praise in Drumhillery

In Drumhillery Primary we seek to reward the children's achievements where possible. Each month we award Pupil of the Month certificates and a range of others including Reader of the Month or perhaps Mathematician of the Month. We also have awards for ICT skills demonstrated and also recognise good manners, pleasing behaviour and care and thoughtfulness.

The awards are always given out at our monthly Achievement Assembly and indeed pupils are encouraged to bring in awards, trophies or certificates won outside of school and have them presented so they earn recognition for what has been achieved beyond the school environment as well.

Pastoral Assemblies

We also have a key pastoral focus each month as follows:

 

September      'Bee' Well mannered

October           Handwriting

November        'Bee' Respectful

December        Speller of the month

January           'Bee' Honest

February          Homework Award

March              Reader of the month

April                'Bee' Helpful

May                 Mathematician of the month

June                'Bee' Caring

 

Staff discuss and promote these concepts positively with the children in class and in assemblies.
