Well ,my first week is nearly over and what has happened?

Jamie was Star of the Week.

Sarah was a Successful Learner and got  a postcard from us.

Bronwyn made an excellent mini book about Fair Trade as part of her homework-well done !!!!

Rebecca brought in Fair Trade bananas,Erin brought in a Fair Trade bag and Amber brought in fair Trade chocolate(we didn’t eat it !)

Everyone enjoyed the Judo on Tuesday.

We had a fantastic extra Golden Time hour for those pupils who always follow our simple school rules.

All in all a good week! Thank you .

Thank You

New behaviour policy

Posted on February 19th, 2008 in news, pupil council by Mrs Adams & Mrs Scott

We had a very interesting assembly today when we found out all about our new school behaviour policy. Mrs Stewart, Jay, Bronwyn and Mrs Adams did a little play showing how teachers will encourage pupils to behave well in class, and what will happen if pupils choose to break the school rules.

Our school rules are

1 - We do as we are asked

2 - We use appropriate school langauge: no swearing, teasing or put downs

3 - We keep hands, feet and objects to ourselves

We found out that we will have lots of opportunities to change our behaviour, but also what will happen if we choose not to, which will involve being moved to a Reflection Table, losing 5 minutes of Golden Time, having a chat about our behaviour out of class and possibly being asked to work outside the class if we don’t choose to return and follow the rules.

Every day someone in every class will have a certificate sent home to celebrate successin school (good behaviour, effort, achievement or attainment) and every week someone will have an extra-special, secret postcard sent home to let them know just how impressed we are with their contrbution to the school and class that week!

So let’s all work together to make our new policy work and have a happy and productive time at Prestonpans Primary School

Class of the Week!

Well done, 7AS! We have just won class of the week for Primary 6 and 7 for the 5th time this year, which is fantastic! We can’t tell you how impressed we are with the behaviour from most of you recently, and you definitely deserve your rewards this week - enjoy your first lunch and your 15 minutes on the space hoppers. I can’t wait to put up a picture of your happy faces when you’re bouncing around in the hall this week.

Let’s all pay close attention to our new school rules this week and see how many jewels we can win this week…

Congratulations!
