Celebrating Achievement

How do we celebrate achievement at Brook Infant School and Nursery  

Staff are always on the lookout for prosocial behaviours to celebrate. We believe praise should be personal and specific. Children are given verbal and non-verbal (e.g. thumbs up) praise throughout the day which is sometimes supported by a sticker.  

Our Sparkly Fish Award  

Certificates are given to children who have shown a special effort to demonstrate our Core Values that week. On a Friday morning, our sparkly fish awards are handed to Mrs Cox who invites the children to her office to celebrate this with them before they bring it home to celebrate with you.

Headteacher’s Award  

Children are also sent to Mrs Cox when they have worked extra hard or done something amazing. They then receive one of her ‘Headteacher’s Award’ certificates and stickers.
