Rewards
All children with 100% attendance this week received a raffle ticket and during assembly, the excitement was buzzing as we drew 7 children to go trampolining. There is an alternative prize for EYFS pupils who win.
How does it work?
Every day your child is in school, they will receive a raffle ticket, five streaks (five days) and they will get the chance to double their luck and receive double raffle tickets! Every Friday in assembly, they will enter the prize draw where the lucky random winners will win different prizes every week!
Welcome back! We hope you had a restful and joyful Easter break. We're excited to dive into a new term full of learning, growth, and great memories together.

REWARDS
Improving attendance is everyone’s business. The barriers to accessing education are wide and complex, both within and beyond the school gates, and are often specific to individual pupils and families. At Co-op Academy Hillside, we will do all we can to support your family and ensure our academy is safe, calm and a supportive environment for your child. Let’s celebrate everyone’s success together.
