Pupils in the school are always encouraged to behave in a responsible fashion, to care for others, themselves and the environment, to have good manners and to be smartly presented.

Prefects
We are keen to give opportunities for taking more responsibility and, in Primary 6, we appoint a Head Boy
and Head Girl each session plus four House Captains. In addition, all pupils in P6 are encouraged to become Prefects – for this, they must apply in writing and new appointments are made twice each term. Duties are not onerous but are expected to be carried out efficiently.

Homework set should employ a pupil for 10 -15 minutes in Primaries 1 and 2, and for 20 minutes in Primary 3. There will be a need for differentiation in this aspect of work, as in any other.

Librarians
Pupils in Primary 6 may also take on the duties of Librarians– it is their job to open the Library at lunchtimes, keep the books in the right place on the shelves and record all books borrowed and returned.

Junior Road Safety Officers
Four pupils from P6 are appointed at the start of each session to be the JRSOs. Their job is to keep road safety in the forefront of the pupils’ minds and this is achieved through a series of competitions and Assembly presentations.

Eco-Schools
The whole school has recently been awarded its Green Flag. Each class elects a representative on to the Eco Committee which meets regularly to keep things moving forward by organising various eco-friendly activities such as recycling, litter picking, saving electricity, composting and gardening.
