Subject Recognition

Subject Certificates are given to students who have demonstrated outstanding achievement, attitude, effort and/or participation in a subject area. Students recognized have not necessarily obtained the highest mark for the grade in the particular subject area, however they combine academic excellence with a superior approach to learning. 

Teachers will present Subject Certificates to students in their respective classrooms at the end of each Semester. 

Subject Certificates celebrate outstanding learning in the areas of:

• Excellence in a specific subject or discipline
• Thinking, Habits of Learning
• Turn around/persistence/resilience
• Leadership/Inspiration/Citizenship
