At Austin Friars St Monica’s we like to praise and reward those pupils who show both outstanding achievement and participation in all aspects of School life. Students who take part in events such as House sporting and musical events, School drama, choirs, swing bands etc are rewarded with House Colours. Historically their has been five levels of badge that a student can achieve through the obtaining of House Colours. However, recently it has become clear that some pupils are achieving the top level badge quite early in their life at the School, and that another final badge was required for those students. The House Special Achievement award is given to those students who deserve the ultimate recognition and praise for their outstanding contribution to School life.
