House and Sports Captains
School House Point System
At Farndon each child belongs to a House: Sycamore, Beech, Willow and Maple. Each house relates to a colour. Throughout the week, the children earn Dojo Points which are awarded for the following things: Ready; Respectful; Safe; Kindness; Perseverance; Worked Hard. On a Thursday, 2 House Captains from Year 6 count the Dojo points for each House and Class. The winning House is shared during Celebration Assembly. At the end of the term, all the House Points will be added to find the winning House for that term.
There are also Class bonuses for the children to try to win. Each half term, the winning class with the most Dojo points are rewarded with a class bonus. Also, the Headteacher sets up "secret missions" where they look at a certain category such as kindness. The class with the most over the half term wins a class bonus.
Team House Points WINNERS for 2024 were BEECH!!!!!! AGAIN.
They won with an average score of 176. Very impressive. Well done to everyone in Beech. They beat Willow who finished in second place by just 1 point!

Farndon's Stars of the Week
Take the time to see who has been a Star this term at Farndon so far. Some of the children each week are given certificates for being "stars" in the classroom, which means they may well have done some wonderful work and behaved really well and done something special.
