What do House Captains do?
All children at St Thomas’ Leesfield are part of a School House Team. Our House Teams are named after past Headteachers. Each week, children collect House Points (Y2 – Y6) or Stars (Rec – Y1) for their Team and recognition is given each week to the Team who score the most points. We have a House Points trophy, where the House Captain will put the winning House’s ribbons on each week in Monday’s collective worship.
Four children from Year 6 are elected by the headteacher and the other school staff members to represent and play an active role in championing our Houses – Ireland, Jones, Bevan and Daniels. The role of a House Captain is one of a privilege, pride and responsibility and provides a young leadership opportunity for the elected children.
Our House Captains contribute a wide range of skills and ideas to the role. All House Captains are expected to model our School Values, British Values and Christian Values to our children and School Community.
