The House System
Robert Sandilands Primary and Nursery School operates a house system across the school.
Our four houses are named after castles: Berkeley (red), Donnington (green), Highclere (yellow) and Windsor (blue). The children earn team points for their house and compete in house competitions. The house with the most team points earns a non-uniform day every short term and the House Cup at the end of the year.
Each house has a Y6 House Captain.

Sports Captains
As well as House Captains, the school also has Sports Captains. The Sports Captains help to raise the profile of Sport and assist with interhouse sporting events.
School Council of Robert Sandilands
The school also has a School Council; the School Council of Robert Sandilands or SCORS. It is led by a Chairperson from Year Six.
Children in Year One and Two have two representatives, Years Three, Four, Five and Six have one representative; these representatives are voted for democratically. They attend meetings, share views and opinions from their class and take forward ideas.
