The School House system is at the heart of our community, fostering a powerful sense of belonging and connection for every student. Being part of a House means actively supporting your peers, showing respect, and working collaboratively across all year groups to make our school a stronger, more connected community. Houses serve as dynamic hubs where students are encouraged to develop leadership and responsibility, encourage teamwork, and participate in fun events that create healthy competition. Students earn valuable House points for their effort, achievement, and acts of kindness, and the collective desire to celebrate achievements together truly reinforces the spirit and strength of their House.
