Hayward’s Heroes
The Hayward’s Code and Hayward’s Heroes
Our five ‘Hayward’s Heroes’ are child-friendly representations of our values and ethos. Each one stands for an area of the ‘Hayward’s Code’, which is the cultural and value system (written by Hayward’s children, staff and governors) that we explicitly teach our children so they can become more successful learners.
SAM
stands up for Maturity.
He says: ‘'Make Good Choices’
Remember: We all have the right to be treated fairly, but we have the responsibility to be trustworthy.
MAX
stands up for Perseverance.
He says: ‘Never give up!’
Remember: We all have the right to ask for help when we need it, but we have the responsibility to work hard and do our best.
LUCY
stands up for Respect.
She says: ‘Treat others as you would like to be treated!’
Remember: We all have the right to feel safe, but we have the responsibility to look after each other.
AMY
stands up for Honesty.
She says: ‘Stand up for what’s right!’
Remember: We all have the right to be heard, but we have the responsibility to speak the truth.
JAKE
stands up for Focus.
He says: ‘Take pride in what you do!’ Remember: We all have the right to engage in our learning, but we have the responsibility to let other people do the same.
All children are members of a Hero Team when they arrive at Hayward's. Brothers and sisters are placed in the same team.
Hero Day 2024
A Hero Day is when we get together in our teams. Children work for the day in their teams rather than in their classes. This means that children in EYFS may be working with children in Year 3 or Year 6. It also provides a lovely opportunity for siblings to work together. Each of our Hero Days has a theme that we follow. We often are fortunate enough to get visitors in who help run workshops for the children. In the Spring Term our theme for Hero Day was 'mental health and well-being.
