Our House Point System

What are houses and house points?

House points form part of our whole school reward system at Stimpson Avenue Academy. It encourages a team ethos across the school and allows children of all ages to have a common goal. 

Every child, from Reception to Year 6, is organised into one of four houses: Red, Blue, Green and Yellow. 

How are house points earned?

House points are given out as recognition of achievement by individual children. They will include things such as:

• Demonstrating one of our school values:
  

  Respect

  Collaboration

  Resilience

  Friendship

  Independence

  Responsibility

  Team spirit

  Honesty

  Creativity

  Kindness

  Aspiration

• An excellent piece of classwork or homework
• Contributing around school
• Sporting achievement or participation

When a pupil earns a house point, they will collect a house point token and add to their class’ token collector. These will then be added to the house point tubes. 

At the end of each term, the tokens will be totalled and the winning team awarded with the house cup as well as a reward; these are voted for by the Junior Leadership Team.
