House Teams at Lambton

Why do we have house teams?

We feel the children benefit from being members of mixed-age school teams. It helps develop opportunities for year groups to work together, encourages children to support each other, gives them a strong sense of responsibility and belonging, and provides them with a range of additional activities to take part in.

How many houses are there?

There are four houses with balanced numbers of boys and girls and numbers from Reception to Year 6. Family members are in the same house. Children are not moved into another house unless there are exceptional circumstances.

How are the houses managed?

Each house has a captain and a deputy house captain from Year 6. Children are selected by staff at the beginning of each new school year. The staff look for children who can lead, be good role models and support others. There is a house badge for the house captains, a house display in the hall, a house colour and a house cup.

When is the house system used?

The house system is  used on Sports Day, subject weeks and during fund raising events. House teams are used for grouping children in PE lessons.
