On the 13th November we took part in Positive Noticing Day . This is our third year marking this special day when we take time to notice all the positive things we do as a school family. 

Positive noticing is simple, practical and highly effective. It is an everyday relational strategy, any time, any place.

Catching children doing the right thing and marking it with positive acknowledgement is not just kindness, it teaches behaviour. You get more of the behaviour that you notice most. 

The impact of positive noticing is both immediate and long-lasting. It helps build self-esteem and confidence in children and shifts the culture in the classroom so that the right behaviour is always the most sought-after behaviour ( Paul Dix)
