HOUSE TEAM SYSTEM
Launched in September 2018, we operate ‘House Teams' across school. All children are allocated a house team with siblings being placed together in the same House. All staff in school are also allocated a House team.
Benefits
- Underpins our behaviour policy - Ready, Respectful & Safe
- Helps transition, as they have people in their team who are older
- Links to school positive behaviour policy based on character education
- Cultural awareness
- Opportunity to explore the morals and qualities that motivated our House Team figures
- Promotes friendly competition
- Opportunity to display school spirit and ‘House’ pride as they work together to achieve a common goal. With the mixed age ranges, older students are available to assist younger students
How will it work?
- Children will be awarded House Points in and around school for following our whole school positive behaviour policy - being ready, respectful and safe
- Up to 10 house points given out as one reward.
- Each week the class total their house points and these will be collected and shared across school
- At the end of the year the team with the most house points recieve a reward
- Each team has a colour linked and this is used on sports day and any other inter- sports events
