Introducing our School of Philosophy House System Captains & Vice Captains for 2025-2026
We have experienced excellent improvements in the promotion of positive discipline within the school community in recent years and this has been assisted greatly with the School of Philosophy House System.
The boys are motivated and keen to impress their teachers/classroom assistants and their teammates in the hope of collecting weekly certificates and the winning House prize at the end of each half term.
“We always try to ensure that the children have a positive experience here at Holy Cross Boys’ Primary School where everyone displays good manners and shows respect for each other,” said House Co-ordinator, Mrs Wallace.
“Parents can help by showing a good interest in how their child’s house is doing and how their child is scoring on the class chart. Also, if a child receives the weekly Principal Award at school, it would be great if parents could reward him at home.”
