House Points

Our school is divided into 4 Houses: Vikings, Romans, Egyptians and Greeks. The Houses were chosen following a naming competition. Brothers and sisters are placed in the same House when they join our school. Each week the children's Dojo points are collected to see which House has won. A House Trophy is then presented to the House Captain in Friday's Celebration Assembly, and the House colours changed. House colours are:

 

Vikings  red yellow                   Dragon logo  

Romans purple white                                                     Eagle logo        

Egyptians blue gold           Cat goddess logo  

Greeks yellow black                                          Winged horse logo       

For special occasions - sports day, Christmas craft day, marble jar treats, Comic Relief - the children work in their houses so that siblings can be together and older children can support younger ones. This develops different friendships and social skills, and is a time to which the children look forward.  It also means parents only have to cheer for one House on Sports Day!

The Marble Jar

 

The marble jar rewards whole school achievement such as excellent behaviour in class, everyone working really hard, good behaviour on school visits etc. It has to be the whole class or school achieving. Marbles are added each week, and when the jar is full, the children have earned a whole school treat. These have included a circus day, learning French skipping with a specialist coach, a visit from the owl man (complete with a host of owls), ice creams for everyone, an artist for a day, a picnic out of school. Children are asked for their hopes each time we fill the jar, so please let us know if you are aware of something they would like to do.
