Attendance Achievement Award
Each week, classes go head-to-head to see who can achieve the highest attendance. The winning class takes home the Attendance Award Trophy and a surprise treat!
But it’s more than just a trophy—great attendance means great learning. Research shows that children who attend school regularly do better in their studies and have brighter futures. So every moment in school really does count!

Achievement in the Community
A huge well done goes to Emily in Year 6 who was chosen by her flute teacher at school to perform at the Durham Music Service Glasshouse Gala.
