Canmore House Leadership Teams
At Canmore, each pupil from P1 to P7 is placed into a ‘House’. Each house has its own House Captain, Vice-Captain and Ambassador. These are roles proudly carried out by members of the P7 cohort.
Our Houses are; Air, Earth, Fire and Water.
Each week, and regularly throughout the school session, pupils support each other, as well as other members of their houses, by demonstrating our school values of Respect, Resilience and Responsibility. House points are awarded and the leading house for that week is celebrated at our reconnector sessions. At the end of each term the leading house’s success is recognised with a end-of-term treat. And who doesn’t love a treat to acknowledge success!
