The last two weeks of this term, Etone College ran its exciting “Don’t Ghost Me” attendance competition, celebrating students who showed fantastic commitment right through to the end of term.

In the spirit of Halloween, the competition encouraged everyone to “stay present” and not disappear like a ghost — and our students certainly rose to the challenge! Throughout the fortnight, we handed out over 400 bags of sweets as instant prizes to reward great attendance and punctuality across Year 7-13.

To make things even more exciting, we also gave away a range of amazing prizes, including Amazon vouchers and Amazon speakers to some of our top attenders.

The competition was a fun and rewarding way to end the term on a high note, reminding everyone that showing up really does pay off. A huge congratulations to all our winners and well done to every student who attended every single day during the fortnight.

Well done as well to all pupils and students who maintained 100% attendance for the whole half term. This was nearly half of all pupils and students. They have a breakfast celebration to look forward to after half term.

Our attendance continues to be above national averages, and well above similar schools.  Keep up the great work, Etone — and remember, don’t ‘ghost’ your education because every day you miss, you really do miss out!
