Houses

All the children at St Hilda's belong to one of three different houses - Herkomer, Attlee or Whitby. There is a healthy rivalry between houses and each house vies to outshine the others by the amassing of house points and sporting triumphs. House points are awarded for a number of reasons apart from academic achievement.
Regularly held house assemblies are keenly participated in.

 

Herkomer
Our house is called Herkomer after the famous local artist and film maker, Hubert Von Herkomer. One of his students built the house we now use as our school.

The Bear Facts
Each house has a Teddy Bear Mascot who is lucky enough to accompany a house member on their holiday travels.

Herkomer Bear has been on his travels again! At Christmas 2007 he went skiing in Korea with Solbi, and at Easter 2008 he went to see the Pyramids and the Sphinx in Egypt with Nadya. Lucky bear!
Attlee Bear was lucky enough to go to Israel with Ruby and Sadie during the Summer Holiday of 2008.
