# Attendance

## Attendance

At St Andrew’s we use Mr Potato Head to reward classes for being at punctual. Every day the children in a class are at school on time (before the register closes) they are rewarded with a piece of Mr Potato Head. Once all pieces are in place the class choose a reward from their class reward list. This could be baking, extra play or a hot chocolate and marshmallows. Once the reward has taken place the pieces are removed and the whole process starts again.

We operate a ‘Star in the Jar’ reward for weekly attendance. Every week that a whole class achieve over 95% attendance they are given a star to add the the class jar. Once the class has collected 10 stars the class choose their reward.
