Sunflower Award
at Deanshanger Primary School

In memory of Mrs Annette Robson

Annette was a very special lady and a highly valued member of staff. She is sorely missed at Deanshanger Primary School.

As the sunflower was her favourite flower, we had created a termly Sunflower Award to recognise and celebrate children that show the attributes that she showed daily - kindness, caring, positivity, strength and loyalty.

Reception Award - Freya

This term the Reception team have dedicated this award to Freya. Her recent gain in confidence, ‘have a go’ and ‘Yes I can’ positive attitude has become more evident in class. To use a sunflower analogy - Freya has embedded her roots, grown a strong stem and the buds are now beginning to bloom. Her brightly coloured sunflower head is shining brighter every day. Freya is a very loyal friend, showing more and more determination. She is very polite, generous and kind. Freya is also considerate, helpful and shows empathy towards others. These are all great qualities to possess.

Year 1 Award - Ruby

Ever since Ruby stepped into my class, her smile each day has lit up the room. I have never met a child of her age with such compassion and heart-warming love for each and every child in her class. She greets everyone with a good morning and a smile, and often a tale to tell of how her Dad has broken something in the house again! She really does like to start the day by making us all laugh!

Ruby's ability to make other children feel happy is beautiful, and she is always there to lend a hand or a hug if someone is feeling sad.

Ruby, you truly are one in a million, we all appreciate your love and kindness each day!

Year 2 Award- Mitchell

Mitchell has grown in confidence and shows great determination. He will now come into school confidently and he is willing to try new things. He shows great determination in all his learning, especially writing. Mitchell works well with others too. Mitchell has a lovely way of communicating with others and he plays brilliantly with others .

Year 3 Award- Luke

We have dedicated this award to Luke. We have chosen Luke for this award because he is always polite, uses lovely manners and always thinks of others, putting them first. He is very helpful, kind and always demonstrates the school values. He comes into school every day with a big smile and no task is too big, he always uses his 'Yes I Can' attitude. He supports every child with their learning, friendships and if they are hurt.

He always ensures his work is the best it can be and takes great pride in everything he does. Luke is very modest and I hope by receiving this award he realises that he is a role model to other children. His thoughtfulness and generosity is something we should all aspire too.

Year 4 Award- Bayley

Bailey has been chosen for the sunflower award because he always has a 'Yes I can' attitude. Every day Bailey tries to reach his challenge. He can always be seen in class focused on his work and he never gives up. He can work with everyone in the year group sensibly and can be trusted with any class job.

Bailey not only works incredibly hard each day but also helps others when they are feeling sad. He is extremely loyal to his friends, always tells the truth and follows the school values.

Year 5 Award- Madison

The Year 5 team have chosen Madison to receive the sunflower award for a number of reasons. She is always kind to others, positive and continuously smiling despite the challenges she has in her own life.

She also has a very loyal friendship group, who support one another through everything that comes their way. Overall, Madison shows great strength in the face of adversity and that is something that should be admired.

Year 6 Award- Aidan

We have chosen Aidan for the Sunflower Award this term. So far during Year 6, Aidan has conducted himself with several, if not all, of the school values. In every lesson he strives to improve his performance from the last.

Around school, he is kind, respectful and trustworthy. In January, especially, he has demonstrated his ability to adapt and become an independent learner. We couldn’t be prouder of Aidan’s achievements so far this year; he is a shining example to all the younger children in the school.
