School Houses

Pupils in Key stage 1 and 2 are separated into Houses: Gowan, Belton, Deakin and Scott who are all past headteachers of Hockley Heath School. Throughout their time at school, pupils have a chance to work together to earn points for their house and cultivate that feeling of team spirit e.g. through sports events.

School Council

The School Council play a vital role in the life of our school.  Each class from Year 1 to Year 6 appoints a School Councillor with elections taking place in September. Newly appointed councillors then serve for an entire year.

School Councillors meet each half term and discuss a range of matters relating to the life of school and the wider community.  They are the ‘pupils voice’ and can share concerns, questions and thoughts from their class members.  They also play a key role in liaising with the Governing Body to ensure that the school is a positive place to be.  School Council Reps will engage with the wider community and understand the importance of a democratic society.  They also play a role in fund raising and supporting a range of charities.

The School Council is overseen by Mrs Dyer.

Librarians

Pupils can volunteer to be a librarian and ensure that our well stocked library space is ready to be used by classes for their allocated library slot during the week.

Classroom Monitors

Children are actively encouraged to take on responsibilities in the classroom to instil routines and a sense of pride in serving others. These typically include book monitors, attendance monitors and book area monitors amongst others.

Active Play Heroes

Our Active Play Heroes play a very important role in keeping children active and engaged at lunchtime. Our Play Heroes are trained in setting up and running games for children of all ages.
