Kirthik - Grade 5

Lots of students have been displaying Best Bee behaviour since returning from Remote Learning, however Kirthik in 4/5K has been a stand out. Kirthik is a very well-mannered, happy student who always puts others before himself and tries to be helpful whenever there is an opportunity. When he sees a job that needs doing, he doesn’t wait to be asked, he just jumps in and does it. He is a great class member and always gives his best efforts with his work. And that’s why Kirthik, is a worthy Best Bee! Congratulations!

This Best Bee award winner is a star! One of our senior students, Ruby is everything that a Best Bee should be…she’s safe, caring, always happy and ready to learn.
