Seaham PS
Cooper is a caring student who goes above and beyond in the playground. He was spotted showing care for a student who was upset. He offered assistance, then alerted a teacher when he couldn’t solve the problem. Soon after he was spotted assisting another student. Well done, Cooper.
Karuah PS
Hudson is nominated for demonstrating community spirit, responsibility and respect. While out riding with a friend, Hudson came across a little child’s learning bike. Rather than leaving it behind, Hudson brought the bike home, made an online post on the local community page with his mum and then waited patiently until the owner’s dad came to collect the bike. What a great example of making sure someone else’s belongings are returned safely. Way to go Hudson!
