Dunlop House System – House Captains and House Vice Captains

When new pupils arrive at Dunlop Primary, their transition is supported by entry into a caring and supportive environment.

Each new pupil becomes a valued member of a small ‘family unit’ within Dunlop and are allocated a House.   Pupils stay within their house until they leave in P7, additionally we place siblings together within a house.

At Dunlop Primary, we have three house: Clerkland,  Glazert and Lugton. These are named after local areas.  Each house is represented by a different colour and we encourage pupils to wear their house colours on days throughout the year.
Clerkalnd = Blue
Glazert = Yellow
Lugton = Red

House Captains

At the beginning of the school year, a P7 is elected House Captain and takes on the responsibility for the leadership and organisation of their house for the forthcoming year and they are supported by a P6 Vice Captain. The House Captains and Vice Captains work tirelessly to ensure their house members are working together to earn House Points through living and demonstrating our School Values of being happy, kind, honest and respectful.

House points are also awarded at House Events, although this year we will need to be creative with how we organise these to ensure we don’t mix bubbles!.  At the end of the year, house points are added together and the house with the most points wins the overall house competition and they life the much coveted House Cup.

Recently, the P7 and P6 pupils prepared and presented an election speech to their peers and each house then chose their captains and vice captains.   A huge congratulations to our House Captains and Vice Captains and also a huge thank you to all the children who worked hard to prepare and deliver their election speeches.  We were delighted to see so many children keen to take on leadership roles with in our school.

House Captains and Vice Captains for 2020/2021 are (and for the very first time, we have a joint captaincy)

with warmest regards, Mrs Nouillan
