These are our Houses and why we have chosen these famous Britons to represent them:
We wanted to make our Houses relevant and meaningful to our children, so they are named after famous Britons, past and present, who best represent four areas of importance in our modern lives:
the natural world, scientific discovery, equality & social justice and today’s reliance on information technology.
