Star Pupils

Pupil Of The Week

At Ballykeel Primary School we are keen to recognise the achievements of our children. Every week teachers pick a "Pupil of the Week". This can be given for all sorts of things - good behaviour, helping others, work in class and so on. Pupils are presented with a special certificate, prize and sticker during Assembly. Their photographs are displayed outside the main office.

Pupil Of The Month

Each month teachers pick a "Pupil of the Month" from their class. These children receive a certificate and enjoy a special "Tea Party with the Principal". Check out the News section to see our latest star pupils.

Positive Playground Award

Every day playground supervisors fill out a positive playground chart to indicate good behaviour at break and lunch times. At the end of each month the two classes (P1-P4 and P5-P7) with the highest score on their chart are awarded the Sandra Stewart cup for positive playtimes and can choose from a range of rewards.

The winning classes are:

November - P1-P4: P1KC and in P5-P7: P5LM

December - P1-P4: P3RO and in P5-P7: P5A/M

January - P1-P4: P1CM and in P5-P7: P6JF

February - P1-P4: P3M and in P5-P7: P6T

March - P1-P4: P2AM and in P5-P7: P5LM

Golden Class

Every month our children compete to be the Golden Class. Children can earn a golden ball for outstanding work, behaviour, being kind or having good manners. Mrs Sheeran, Mr Fisher and Mrs Thompson are constantly looking for an opportunity to award a golden ball in the playground, corridors, classrooms and assembly hall.

The class at the end of the month with the most Golden Balls wins extra play time (P1-P2) or a week off written homework (P3-P7).

Other Stars

Star Pupils can also be children who perhaps win awards or recognition for sporting or musical achievements outside of school.

We also reward good attendance with a Chill-Out Day; and good uniform with a treat box for the class.
