About the House System

Each house has its own Coat of Arms and House Values statement and is led by two Year 6 House Captains, voted for by the school, with support from staff House Captains.

Children can earn house points which go towards their house total - the house with the most house points at the end of each half-term wins themselves a mufti day. Examples of house point worthy behaviour can be found below:

Children also compete for their houses at sports day and other inter-house events organised throughout the year.
