'Spotted Being EGG-cellent!' Proud Notes (for Notifying Home and Recognising Achievements)

The ‘Proud Notes’ resource is a valuable tool for children and young people to recognise and celebrate their successes and achievements, in turn boosting their levels of self-esteem.
With a focus on positive affirmation and building up a healthy sense of self-worth, it provides a platform for them to highlight and reflect on their positive moments, no matter how big or small they may be.
The activity of filling out proud notes by staff members helps children to identify moments to feel proud of throughout the day! These are perfect for sending home with children so that they can share and celebrate their successes at home and in school!
How could this resource be used?
- To support and promote positive self-esteem.
- To celebrate accomplishments and personal achievements.
- To feedback between school and home proud moments a child has throughout the day.
