  • New initiative at our school

    Published 12/11/24

    We are excited to introduce a new initiative at our school called Hot Chocolate Fridays!

    This special event is designed to recognise and reward students who have demonstrated exceptional effort and gone above and beyond in their studies and behaviour.

    Students are nominated for Hot Chocolate Friday for a variety of reasons. This could be by showing consistent effort in their studies, or by demonstrating the TWA values. For example, on our first hot Chocolate Friday, students were nominated for service to the community, because they gave up their free time to support the school's Open Evening. Other students were nominated because they chose to give up their free time to pick up litter.

    We believe that acknowledging and rewarding positive behaviour and academic achievements will motivate our students to continue putting in their best efforts.

    Thank you for your support in making this initiative a success. We look forward to celebrating our students’ achievements together!
