Our Lady of Lourdes Primary School Logo

A dynamic, inclusive school; rooted in its Catholic values and respect for all people; a safe place of successful, enjoyable and challenging learning.

Our Houses

Each child in the school is a member of one of the school houses.  We have named the houses after characters from Rudyard Kipling’s Jungle Book:

Bagheera

Baloo

Shere Khan

Mowgli

Housepoints are given for any positive behaviour and recorded on the class Housepoint chart. Only 1 or 2 housepoints should be given out at a time in order to keep them special. Year 6 will collect totals each week and the winning house will be recognised in the weekly celebration assembly; a cup will be placed on the Housepoint shield to show this. Overall points scored and the winning House will be displayed in the hall. Every term the winning house will be rewarded with an extra play and snack.

Our Lady's Great Christmas Tree Competition

This year, the PTFA have bought each of our four Houses a 6ft pre-lit Christmas Tree. Each House decorated their tree with decorations in their House colour. The decorations were either made or bought (home-made wins every time, in our books) and then brought in for the tree.  During the final week of term, the children were able to put their decoration on the tree and then, during the Christmas Dinner, we asked Theresa (our school cook) and Mike (one of our school cleaners) to choose the winner. 

And … our esteemed judges have deliberated, conjugated and had a biscuit and decided that the winner of the Christmas Tree Competition is….

Baloo! The blue tree wins!!!!!
