Achievement Badges and Blanket

One of the newer traditions of Howqua, the Achievement Badges, give students the opportunity to take pride in their efforts across the physical, academic and pastoral domains of the program. The development and demonstration of these skills underpins the transformative nature of Howqua, and Lauriston has also translated these Badges into digital credentials, allowing the students to symbolise their achievements in a digital portfolio that they take with them beyond the school gates. At the end of the year, the students are also given a blanket to stitch their Badges onto as a keepsake.

The highs and lows, and the tears and triumphs.

The footwear of choice is not unique to Howqua, however its practical uses, including ‘sports mode’, go beyond getting one from A’Rob to the art room – no two pairs are alike, with adornments allowing students freedom to express their personality.
