My daughter came out of class the other day sporting a rather fetching School Badge. It said ‘milk monitor’ on the front of the School Badge and you could tell it meant the world to her. She’s only six and any type of praise or encouragement brings out the best in her. Being promoted to milk monitor at school really made her day and I think it’s a clever use of a School Badge. In fairness the school in general is big into badges. They hand out School Badges to pupils to give them a sense of responsibility. I think it’s nice that learning establishments still use badges in this manner. It certainly seems to do wonders for the attitude of the children at my daughter’s school.
Whenever I see a School Badge it reminds me of the time when I was at school. Back in the day we had a School Badge for prefects and also had School Badges on our blazers as well. It made you feel good when you wore your blazer and I was proud of the badge on the front. I even had a bag that had a School Badge printed on the front although I seem to remember this didn’t last for very long. Wherever the school bought their bags from they wasn’t very good and the handles snapped off mine after a few months.
Today there seems to be a growing number of School Badges in learning establishments, far more than when I was at school. Using my daughter’s school as an example they have a multitude of badges and her milk monitor badge is just one example. Nowadays you see badges for prefects, members of the choir and house button badges in all shapes and colours. Pupils are handed a School Badge if they work hard during lessons and become star pupils for the day.
It’s nice to see some traditions remain the same and that certainly counts for School Badges. I was chuffed to pieces to see my daughter wearing her milk monitor badge and you could see it put a spring in her step.
