How our Points System Works:
Points Period: Points run from Friday to Thursday each week
- Daily Maximum: 20 points can be earned each day.
- Fresh Start Approach: Points are awarded in short intervals (1 lesson = 2 points).
- Clean Slate: Each lesson offers a fresh start for earning points.
How to Earn Your Points
- Try Your Best: Demonstrating effort in activities.
- Be Safe: Following safety guidelines and showing care towards others.
- Each Behaviour: Worth 2 points per session.
Weekly Rewards
- On Wednesday children make their 3 choices for Friday activity – if they earn 65% or more, they’ll get one of their choices! The higher the points, the better chance of getting first choice.
- Points are tallied on Thursday.
- After school on Thursday, adults will group children for their reward activities. Children are made aware which activity they have earned in class on Friday morning.
- Friday afternoon Reward Activities (12:45–2:00) based on points earned.
- Celebration of achievements during Friday's Praise Assembly.
