STUDENT Shoutout!

This week during form time, our students have been looking at Women's History Month. This month is dedicating to highlighting the contributions of women to events in history and contemporary society. It is celebrated during March in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, corresponding with International Women's Day on March 8th.

Our students have been incredibly open minded and respectful in these form time sessions, asking insightful questions and engaging in meaningful discussions on the impact of women in society and throughout history. Well done to you all.

Even more reasons to celebrate this week as our students who volunteered to be buddies to our group of Spanish exchange students, received certificates during lineups. These certificates are just a tiny token of our gratitude to all of you who offered support, kindness and a friendly face to the students who joined us last week. You should all be incredibly proud of the hospitality and friendliness you showed, those students will remember their Strood Academy experience for a lifetime, and that is largely down to you. We are so proud of you!

NEW REWaRDS!

Towards the end of Module 3, we introduced a number of new rewards for students including MYP Learner profile attribute badges and Friday attendance rewards. Information on these rewards can be seen below.

MYP Learner profile attribute badges can be awarded for:

Achieving 10 or more reward points in that attribute.
Completing an additional task/community project/something notable outside of their lesson time.
Individual nominations from staff members.

Friday attendance rewards: students are having the chance to be rewarded if they attend a full week at school from Friday to Thursday each week. Rewards are being given out the following Friday and students must be in attendance on that day to receive their reward. Two students per year group, per college are being awarded a certificate and a prize if their attendance is 100% during this period.

We have celebrated a number of these rewards so far and we look forward to awarding more badges, prizes and certificates to students throughout the rest of the academic year.
