The Future Aces Creed is posted in every classroom and teaching space in the school. Our staff members acknowledge, congratulate, encourage and reward students for their positive behaviour in a number of ways, both formally and informally. “Future Ace Mini Alerts” are regularly awarded to students who are seen demonstrating the Future Aces creed. They are given a certificate. Their names are read on morning announcements. Students who consistently demonstrate adherence to the philosophy are named “Future Aces” and receive acknowledgement and an award at monthly Future Aces Assemblies.
