House System
From Reception to Form VI, each pupil becomes a proud, lifelong member of one of four Houses; St. Andrew’s (blue), St. David’s (yellow), St George’s (red) or St. Patrick’s (green). Pupils really enjoy being part of our House System and accrue house points weekly, winning stickers and badges in a House Assembly where we celebrate the pupils with the most points in each year group and overall. The House Captains representing the overall winning House collect the cup and raise the flag on our tower!
The House System also provides fantastic opportunities for friendly competition across the school and between year groups. We run House Football, Netball, Hockey, Kwik Cricket, Poetry, Music, Art and a House Quiz throughout the year. Our Poetry, Music and Art competitions are externally judged by local experts which the children find very exciting.
Our School Values are also embedded in our House system, and pupils can win tokens for demonstrating one (or more) of our values in the way they behave. Each term, the House with the most tokens for each value are declared winners. The competition to be the ‘Kindest House’, or the ‘Most Responsible’, ‘Highest Achieving’ or ‘Most Resilient’ are hotly contested honours!
