House Events and Points

House points are awarded for a variety of reasons for example, demonstrating any of our school values (Respect, Hardworking, Teamwork, Determination and Kindness) for keeping our cloakrooms and corridors tidy, wearing our House badges, lining up quietly, showing initiative, or being a responsible citizen, confident individual, effective contributor or successful learner. Weekly points are announced by the Captains at assembly and added to the House noticeboard in the gym hall each week.

Pupils participate in their houses at Sports Day and sponsored events. This enables everyone to feel a sense of pride where they are not just representing or competing as an individual but as part of a team.

Throughout the year pupils take part in a variety of house events such as, House Day where the pupils work within their houses and complete a range of curricular activities. This provides pupils with the opportunity to work with others across the school in a variety of contexts demonstrating their teamwork.

School Houses help us to promote our welcoming, inclusive and supportive ethos that we strive for as part of our vision at Dalserf Primary School.
