Houses

At our school, we are proud to have four Houses, the house system is designed to foster a sense of belonging, teamwork, and healthy competition among our students. Our four Houses are:

  • Bishops

  • Guards

  • Rangers

  • Stags

Throughout the year, students compete in a wide range of activities, from sports and arts to academic challenges, with points awarded for participation and success. These House competitions are an integral part of school life, encouraging students to support one another and develop valuable skills such as leadership, resilience, and collaboration.

As the year progresses, we keep a running total of House points, which are earned through participation and achievement in these events. The House with the most points at the end of the year is crowned the winner, with the coveted House Trophy presented during our end-of-year celebrations:

House Competitions

Our House Competitions are an exciting and engaging part of school life, where students compete in a variety of activities to earn points for their House. These competitions foster teamwork, school spirit, and a sense of friendly rivalry. Whether it’s sports, music, drama, or academic challenges, each House strives to demonstrate their skills, enthusiasm, and dedication throughout the year.

 

Students are encouraged to participate in these events, showing their commitment to their House while developing important qualities such as collaboration, perseverance, and leadership.
