Rick Berry is a Primary school teacher from South Australia with over 35 years teaching experience. 

 

This book is a culmination of a two year trial in his classroom where all children were given a badge booklet and encouraged to take it home and explore the badges with their parents and grandparents.

 

The success of the programme has been remarkable with every morning enthusiastic children wanting to share what they have done at home or on their holidays as they pursue badge achievements.

 

The author would appreciate any feedback of your successes or stories to relate if the badge programme has been implemented and even ideas for new badges that suit the various categories at www.schoolbadgechallenge.com
