Merit System
The school runs a merit system to recognise and encourage
effort by students. Merits are awarded not only for academic
effort but also for participation in sporting activities,
good manners, willingness to assist others etc.. Certificates
are presented in assembly to Merit Winners twice each term.
House System
All students are allocated to one of three houses; Gulf,
Sheraton, Oasis or Ramada. The houses compete against each
other at sports events and for total merit marks, encouraging
a healthy level of rivalry.
Communications
It is important parents take an active interest in the
progress and achievements of their children at the school.
This requires you not only discuss school with your child,
but develop lines of communication with his/her teachers
and the senior staff.
Parents' evenings are held at the end of every term, giving
parents the opportunity to discuss the progress of their
child in detail. In addition, all children receive a detailed
written School Report at the end of the year.
The school also publishes a newsletter once per month.
This helps to inform parents of the wide variety of activities
going on around the school. A copy is sent home with each
student - it can also be downloaded in colour from this
web site.
Contacts
The first point of contact for parents is the class teacher.
This is the person who spends the most time with your child
and should be able to answer any concerns you may have.
If they are unable to help, you are welcome to make an
appointment with the School Office to see either:
- Head of Pre-School & Reception - Mrs. Woodhouse
- Leader of Years 1 & 2 - Ms. Kay
- Leader of Years 3 & 4 - Ms. Dauncey
- Leader of Years 5 & 6 - Ms. Gardiner
