College Colours (Badge System)

COLLEGE COLOURS

At ECC some challenges are set in the classroom, some are in the playground and some further afield. Students can learn an instrument, go hiking, run fast at districts, do community service, learn scripture verses, be part of cultural events, participate in technology challenges, play chess for the school, and many more activities that count towards earning their "College Colours".
There are a number of badges to be earnt in a variety of areas of interest and students are encouraged to rise to these challenges.
Primary Teachers track badges manually on charts in the classroom. Secondary students must apply online - this supersedes the old badge booklet.
Application forms are on Google Classroom (where ECC students also access homework and assessment tasks). To fill in their requirements for each badge they will:

Log in to Google Classroom.
Click on the entry page for the badge they wish to achieve.
Type their activity details in the blank area.
Submit their application online to the secondary office.

If requirements are met, the form is approved and dated. If requirements are not met to complete the badge, the application is returned to the student with feedback / suggestions (via Google Classroom).
All RISE Teachers are familiar with activities and the application process and will have been encouraging students to keep their information up to date. It is often very difficult for students to remember all the things that they have done early in the year.
