House Captains 2025 - 2026

Every child at St Peter’s is part of a school House Team.

Our teams were named in consultation with our pupils, parents and staff.  As our Christian faith is integral to everything we do at St Peter’s, we decided upon names which are symbolic to St Peter: Cross, Rock, Fisher and Keys.

Throughout the year, the children are divided into their house teams for various activities, including half termly inter-house sporting competitions, sports days and end of term quizzes.

The children earn points for their house teams by working hard in class and demonstrating our Christian values.  At the end of each term, the points are totalled, with the winning team receiving a special treat. 

Role and Expectations of House Captains

Every house is led by two Year 6 children.  At the beginning of the academic year, each member of the Year 6 class is required to prepare a speech which they deliver to the entire school.  The children and staff then vote to select two House Captains who will lead each house for the academic year. 

The role of House Captain is one of pride and responsibility, and requires dedication and commitment for the entire year.

We expect our House Captains to:

• Demonstrate our Christian values on a daily basis
• Be a positive role model and an ambassador for the school
• Be caring, encouraging, friendly and supportive of all children, especially those in their house team
• Be enthusiastic and committed to the house system at St Peter’s
• Work together as a team to achieve success for all

Role Description

• Inspire the children in their house team
• Lead and support the children in their house team in a variety of house competitions and activities
• Work closely with the Headteacher, providing ideas and support for competitions and house related activities
• Select a charity to support for the academic year; help to organise and lead fundraising activities
• Help organise and lead house meetings and collective worship sessions
• Be an excellent role model in terms of behaviour, attitude and dress at all times

Throughout the year, the House Captains will raise awareness of their chosen charities by leading whole school collective worship sessions and fundraising events.
