Our Awards

The school acknowledges students’ successes by awarding badges at assembly. There is no limit to the number of awards each student can aspire to and students are encouraged to sew their merit awards onto their school jacket or jersey sleeve. We also recognise individual student achievement outside of the school. This is limited to students who are successful as representatives in regional and national competitions. General participation in other activities will not earn a sporting or cultural colour but will be acknowledged in our school newsletter.
