House Points & Awards
At Caversham Park Primary School, the children are divided into four different houses, named after trees native to our local environment: Oak, Beech Chestnut & Willow. The children are awarded team points for demonstrating our school Learning Behaviours, as well as for demonstrating positive behaviour and for effort/attainment in their work. The house achieving the highest number of team points at the end of the academic year is awarded a trophy, in the final assembly of that school year.
Children also receive individual certificates as a reward for achieving certain numbers of house points. These are as follows:
Bronze Silver Gold Diamond |
25 team points |
These certificates are awarded in Celebration Assemblies, which take place on most Friday mornings. At these assemblies the children also receive certificates and badges for specific merits of good effort, work or behaviour. A child in each class each week is also awarded a certificate for being the “Star of the Week”.
In addition to individual awards, certificates are presented to classes for being "Class of the Week".
We also encourage children to bring into school certificates, medals and other awards that they receive from clubs and activities that they take part in out of school, so that these can be shared in our Celebration Assemblies.
