Today, our new school 'house system' launches and every pupil and member of staff will be allocated to one of six houses, each with its own ethos:
Crown - Explore, Dream, Discover.
Lion - Resourceful, Courageous, Proud.
Bluejay - Inspire, Adapt, Challenge.
Eagle - Imagine, Believe, Achieve.
Rose - Wisdom, Passion, Resilience.
Chevron - Aspire, Compete, Excel.
Pupils and staff will be attending house assemblies this afternoon to find out which house they will be in. Each pupil will be given a new house tie and a house t-shirt ready for the inter-house sports day competition next month.
The aim behind the new system is to promote a sense of identity and community within the whole school environment, and to encourage a healthy sense of competition between house groups.
