Tirlebrook House Groups
At Tirlebrook Primary School we have four house groups:
Beauchamp
Hastings
Montague
Wenlock
Each house is led by two Year 6 children who are democratically elected by their peers as House Captains in Autumn Term.
All children at Tirlebrook Primary School belong to one of our houses and work hard each week to earn house points. House points form part of our rewards system and can be earned for academic achievement and behaviours above those normally expected. The house that earns the most points each week is presented with the house cup in our celebration assembly on a Friday afternoon. Their house colour ribbons are tied to the cup and it goes on display in our school hall for the week.
At the end of each school year the house that has won the cup the most times throughout the school year is awarded the house cup shield. Their house name is engraved on the shield and it goes on display in our trophy cabinet.
Each Friday our children are involved in house harmony when they come together to explore new activities.
The children also take part in house activities like quizzes and house huddles. They also spend time in their houses during House Harmony time.
The World Marathon Challenge champions in Autumn 2017 were Montague and the cross country competition was won by Wenlock.
