Read MoreNew House Point System
Published 15/01/25Barnhill Community High School is excited to introduce its new House System, designed to foster teamwork, school spirit, and a healthy sense of competition among students. The school has been divided into four vibrant houses: Yellow, Green, Blue, and Red, with every student allocated to one of these teams. The House System encourages students to participate actively in school life, as house tokens can be earned for attending clubs, excelling in lessons, and taking part in form-time challenges. Tokens are collected in designated house collectors, and at the end of each half term, the house with the most tokens will be crowned the winner and receive an exciting reward.

Published 16/12/24A huge congratulations to Shreya 7A and Gabriella 7C who enriched their study of history by using Padlet to watch exciting videos and articles on the History Curriculum. Shreya produced a fantastic poster about the Battle of Hastings in 1066 and how William won, which led to the establishment of a Norman dynasty in England. Gabrielle produced a poster on the Tudors and the religious changes that occurred during the Reformation. This is a great preview into our enquiry of 'How were people of Morebath Church affected by the Reformation?'. A big well done to Shreya and Gabriella for showcasing their passion of history. Future historians in the making!
