Every Friday, Exploring students participate in R.I.S.E. Time. This is a time to celebrate achieving our goals for the week and completing our work. Students get to choose from three options for activities run by Exploring teachers, and sometimes other teachers, learning assistants or parents. We even have an option to help with the younger students at Discovery Time. Some examples of activities so far this year are baking, drama, art, hair and nails, outside games, fort making, farmyard fun, science experiments and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) activities - to name a few. Here's what some of our students think:
"You earn RISE Time by being responsible and kind to others. We get to play and choose what we want to do, and we learn new things." Hamish Thompson
"We get RISE Time because we do all our work. I like that we get to join in and have fun with our friends. My favourite RISE activity is Knex and hot wheels." Angus Dench
"I like how people join in together and how we get to do things we wouldn't normally do with people from other classes. My favourite RISE activities are Just Dance and Hair and Nails." Nicola Upritchard
"It's a good reward for if you do good work and it's really fun way to finish the week. I like Ninja Warrior the best." Bailey Cattermole
"I think it encourages people to do better work to earn RISE Time. My favourite activity is the outside games." Shea Kelly
"RISE Time makes you feel like you have achieved something. You can do fun games with friends and people from other classes." Riley Abbott
