House Captains and Deputies
Published 12/06/26Usually, we elect new house captains in September, however we are having a refresh in school!
We will be having four new houses from September as our current houses are very uneven and we thought it would be good to have a change. Our new houses will be Ash, Birch, Hawthorn and Rowan. These are still all native English trees and link to our themes throughout the school.
We have also held our elections and appointed our house captains and deputies for September already! This so they can be trained up for their roles by the outgoing house captains and deputies. They have been paired up but do not know which house they will be in yet. Congratulations to:
David and Ivy
Scarlett and Flossy
Beau and Phoebe
