Star of the Week / Players' Player
At Grange, we love our Friday assemblies because that is when we recognise and celebrate our Stars and Players' Players.
Our Stars are children who have been nominated by the class teacher for going the extra mile - for example, an achievement in learning, or persevering with a personal challenge or for showing consideration or kindness to others.
Our Players' Players are chosen by the children in the class - they vote and give a reason for their choice of Players' Player.
Usually, the pupils then wear the 'Blue Sweatshirt' all week so everyone can see who our Stars are. However, during Covid we have decided to give the children a lovely enamelled badge instead.
Stars receive and keep a blue badge.
Players' Player receive and keep a yellow badge.
We also let parents know of these achievements through our website and our FaceBook account.
We won't contact parents by Groupcall because of the lack of assemblies, but we will post the information on our website and FaceBook page, in line with our current photo consents. If you wish to change your photo consent, please let the School Office know.
