House System returns to the Senior School

Who remembers the House system?

Back by popular demand!  The House system, which used to exist in the Senior School but was stopped a number of decades ago, is coming back this term to Hymers. 

The system of allocating pupils into Houses continues to exist in the Junior School but has not in the Senior School for a number of years. That is all about to change. From the start of this term, the Houses of Brandesburton, Gore, Holderness and Trinity will be back in the Senior School.

As well as inter-house competitions all Senior School students can gain House points in lessons, for homework, in form periods, in co-curricular activities and around the School site.

Our very own Sorting Hat has determined that all pupils moving to the Senior School from the Junior School will stay in their current House and any pupil in the Senior School now who was in our Junior School will re-join the House they were in for the Junior School.         

Each House has two Head of House picked from the Sixth Form and a House Cup will be the prize for the most points.

Good luck to our four Houses this term!
