We are bringing in a reward system at school to recognise all the awesome things our students are doing.

This term we are introducing a reward system at school. Students will gain Hiranga Points (excellence points) for upholding our school values in class and around the grounds. These will be easily achievable and will recognise and reward our students for consistently doing the right thing.

Here are a few details about our reward system:

• Points can be gained in and out of class. This could be for good participation in class, great test results, consistently wearing the correct uniform, working hard and asking good questions, putting litter in the bin, showing kindness and so on.
• Points will be handed into the student’s Kaiārahi during Ako time each day and cashed in for vouchers to be used at our school canteen.
• When students gain 300 points they will be awarded a Hiranga/Excellence Certificate by the Principal at a whole school assembly. They will also go in a prize draw. If they win this they will choose a friend to celebrate with. Prizes could include movie vouchers, a pizza voucher, tickets to flip out etc.
• Teachers will send home postcards in recognition of great things that students have done.
• If a student goes above and beyond what is expected, they may be awarded a Values Certificate and additional points.

We are really excited to introduce this to our students and community. We have so many students who consistently do the right thing and we are looking forward to rewarding them for this.
