Totternhoe C.E. Academy
With God’s love, we seek adventure with our minds and find a home for our hearts
Houses
At Totternhoe CE Academy we use a House system. All the children and staff in school have been allocated a house and spend time in their houses, building team skills and working together to complete challenges, as well as gaining a deeper understanding of our Christian Values.
Throughout the year, children can earn individual house points for academic achievements, including showing great effort, and can earn house points for displaying our Christian Values towards their friends, peers and adults in the school. House points are also awarded for representing the school and participating in a class or school production.
These individual house points are then carried over into the main house tally and each term we announce the running totals and celebrate which house is the winner. At the end of the year we celebrate the overall winner and they win the House Cup, which is decorated with ribbons in the winning house colours.
