We celebrate the things that make us special…

School Council

At Rokesly Infants and Nursery School we have an elected school council consisting of two councillors from each class. The children are given a big question to work on each year. They ask the opinions and ideas of their class to help work towards a solution to this question and to bring forward changes to their school at council meetings. School councillors also write to companies and local businesses to help fund projects.

Junior School Buddies

These children To support all children transitioning to the Junior School Year 5 children can apply to become playground buddies, sport ambassadors and reading buddies in the Infants school. This helps all children to make friends outside of their year group and means your child will already have older friends when they make their next steps to the Junior school.

YouChoose Assembly

YouChoose assembly is an opportunity for all children to choose assembly themes, that are led by members of the SLT. The children become the experts to facilitate an interactive assembly.

Zones of Regulation

The Zones of regulation is used across the school to support children’s understanding of their emotions and how to use strategies to regulate when in a heightened emotional state.

The Zones have four colours that indicate how you are feeling see below:

We use the Colour Monster story in all classes to start early discussion about how we feel and to explore different types of emotions.

Talkbox

At Rokesly we are a talking school, the children are empowered to share their views and feelings because they know that they are valued.  Children use the Talkbox in school to inform us of a worry. They can do this by writing their name and class on a Talkbox slip and putting in the Talkbox. A member of staff will check in to help them work through their worry using a restorative approach.
