House Cup Reports
Brierley House System
Every child from Year 1 through to Year 6 is randomly allocated into a house, which they will represent during their time here at Brierley. In order to help with the organisation of the houses, House Captains have been appointed from Year 6. The house names were chosen as they are all names of famous Cheshire landmarks: Anderton, Jodrell, Tatton and Delamere.
The four houses compete over the school year in various sporting and academic activities, with the house earning the most Dojos being crowned as winners for each term. Dojos are also awarded for positive behaviour, excellent attendance and class work.
About the House System
The idea of introducing a house system stemmed from wanting to address some objectives to improve our whole school:
- To offer ALL children the chance to take part in extra-curricular activity (some are unable to stay after school).
- To bring a sense of pride in belonging to a house and to enjoy the friendly competition between houses.
- To create more opportunity for pupils to experience both winning and losing (life skills!).
- To be used as a positive behaviour tool - individuals can collect Dojos from teachers.
- To reward excellent attendance with Dojos.
- To offer more leadership and organisational opportunities to Year 5/6 pupils.
The house names were also offer class teachers the opportunity to produce work based on the houses. The cross-curricular links could include: History, Geography, Art, Design / Technology, English and ICT.
In addition to the appointed house captains, we have assigned each member of staff to a house.
We organise house events for all years, with competitions taking place in PE lessons and at lunchtimes. For KS2, the House Captains (with guidance!) are responsible for selecting and encouraging pupils to participate in the house events.
House points for each event / activity are awarded as follows:
1st = 4 points 2nd = 3 points 3rd = 2 points 4th = 1 point
Mr Foulkes collates and keeps the scores updated throughout the school year. The children love our house system and the opportunities that it provides.

The second half of the competition saw putts from 2m and these were worth double points, so it gave the chasing pack chance to catch up points quickly. In this round a stunning run of successful putts from TATTON saw them bank 16 points more and claim first place overall on 22pts. Early leaders Jodrell found the 2m distance more tricky, but they held on to claim 2nd place on 15pts.

3rd Place: Tatton (61pts)
4th Place: Jodrell (60pts)
WELL DONE to ANDERTON who have led from the front this term and are deserved winners, despite a good effort from Delamere, especially in the last week! At the bottom, a late Tatton resurgence saw them sneak into 3rd place ahead of Jodrell.
We now move on to the Summer term which is always a fantastic term of competition, which includes Sports Day in May! Let's see if Anderton can keep the blue ribbons on the house cup, or if another house can take their crown!
