House System

When pupils join Flora Gardens, they are placed into one of four Houses: Diamond, Emerald, Ruby or Sapphire. Pupils will remain in the same House throughout their school life. By placing pupils in Houses, it enables inter-school competition at all levels, as well as creating a sense of belonging. A few exciting competitions include: the winter music video competition, sports day and a variety of different house day events!

Each House is led by a Head of House, and are assisted different captains, who are selected from years 5 and 6. House and Vice Captains have the important role of inclusion and wellbeing monitors, to ensure that everyone has someone looking out for them at break and lunchtimes. There are also Captains for Sport and Art, who set up and run enjoyable activities during break and lunchtime!

Pupils are awarded House points for the displaying the following school values:

Value 1: Choose Your Attitude – Goal: To have a school that is collaborative.

Value 2: Respect – Goal: To create a school where we all feel valued and loved.

Value 3: Adventure – Goal: To choose to be curious, to take risks and to create our own paths.

Value 4: Trust – Goal: To have a school where openness and honesty are at the heart of all we do.

Value 5: Fulfilment – Goal: To take pride in success and seek worthwhile challenges.

Value 6: Personal Well-being: To endeavour to be healthy, happy and harmonious.

At the end of the year the house with the most house points has the privilege of lifting the school shield! This reflects all of the hard work, determination and fun, that the house has had across the year. The current holders of the House shield Emerald House! The shield is engraved each year and is kept in the School Office for everyone to see.

Furthermore, at the end of each term, the pupils with the highest number of House points in each House are awarded a certificate at a House assembly. As well as this, at the end of the academic year there is a massive prize for the boy and girl with the highest number of points.

House Days

The Heads of Houses organise house days once every term to ensure that each house gets celebrated regularly. During these house days, children are invited into to school in their house colours and take part in some activities that raise money for local charities. Previously, the school has supported a wide range of charities including: Sport Relief, NSPCC, British Heart Foundation, Hammersmith and Fulham Food Bank and more!

The Bank and Shop

Our school has a super initiative to encourage good attendance and punctuality for our children. Our idea is that the children can earn house points (dojos) as rewards for excellent attendance, punctuality and showing our school values. House points (dojos) can be spent in our shop, where there are dutiful ‘Shop Keepers’ to help you pick out anything you want! The shop has a wide variety of items available for the children to purchase. Just check out the shop bellow!
