Our school is divided in to four houses: Oak, Chestnut, Sycamore and Beech. Siblings are assigned to the same house. Each house has two staff leaders.
House Points are collected by pupils in a range of ways. Individuals may be awarded points for respecting the rights of others or for following instructions well, for outstanding homework, excellent manners, acts of kindness and so on. Housepoints are awarded using 'thumbs up' on MarvellousMe. Parents will be able to use the app to see how many house points their child has collected.
At events such as sports day children compete for their house.
House points are recorded every week. Mrs Barbour and the house captains announce the winning house in celebration assembly on a Friday. At the end of terms 2, 4 and 6 the house with the most points is granted an extra 'house treat'.
