Both staff and students enjoyed another successful Friday Pride Day event on Friday 2nd October. Over 70 students were invited to attend by staff presenting golden and diamond tickets for their outstanding work and collecting a fantastic prize.
Students love Friday Pride Day and we love celebrating with our students.

“I was awarded a Golden ticket by my Science teacher for excellent homework and excellent achievement in the Assessed Piece. I was also awarded a Diamond ticket for excellent work and presentation in RS. I was surprised but very happy to receive the tickets. There are so many good prizes on offer. Friday Pride Day offers a good incentive to work hard in lessons and give your best ”

“My Computing teacher said that I made an excellent start in Computing and I was awarded a Diamond ticket. I felt very proud of my efforts. Friday Pride Day is really good – It’s nice to see your friends going up to receive their treats for Friday Pride Day. A nice celebration during Friday lunch time. So pleased to receive two prizes for a Diamond Ticket ”

“I received a Golden ticket from my English teacher for producing a really good utopian ( dream place, land of heaven) and dystopian writing in English, (Hunger Games). My teacher was very pleased with my efforts. I was also recognised by the Head of Upper School for no negative behaviour points, excellent behaviour, 100% attendance. I was really happy and shocked, but also really impressed with myself. There are so many good prizes, I really like them, there is a good variety. Friday Pride Day is really fun, a good thing to promote good behaviour and to be rewarded for that, it makes Friday’s fun and makes people feel happy”

“I was awarded a Golden ticket for my excellent work in Maths. I was so happy, that I stood out because there may have been other students who were also deserving. I would have been pleased for them if they got the ticket too. There is such a good range of prizes. Friday Pride Day is really good. I like it because if you do something well, you get rewarded, hard work pays off”

“I was awarded a Golden ticket for making good use of the resources in the library. I felt so happy and was very excited to show my mum and dad. I loved the prizes but next time can we have more chocolate?!! I love chocolate. Friday Pride Day is a good way to enjoy Friday lunch time with your friends”

“I was awarded a Golden ticket for my excellent piece of writing in French. My teacher spoke very highly about me to my peers in my lesson. I was very proud of myself. Friday Pride Day motivates students and rewards them for the great stuff that they do, it gives a purpose in trying your best”
