OVERVIEW

Houses


Students are allocated to one or four School Houses and once allocated will stay in that House throughout their time at KH8 Primary. Each house has a nominated staff House Leader. The Primary School has four student House Captains. The House system is an integral part of life at KH8 and provides opportunities for students to:

  • Participate in friendly competition
  • Collect rewards for positive contributions
  • Develop group identify and a sense of belonging
  • Lead and mentor younger students, where appropriate

Students may be awarded house points by members of staff for a variety of reasons. Examples include, polite and well-mannered behaviour, demonstrating a caring attitude towards peers, working to the best of the student’s ability, putting special effort into a piece of work, positive attitudes towards work and being helpful.
