House System
The House system is named after the four lakes which form part of a Local Nature Reserve, home to 60 species of breeding birds as well as the largest heronry in the county. This area is also known as the Rickmansworth Aquadrome.
Students are presented with a House lapel badge when joining the school in a presentation ceremony from the Headteacher.
House competitions are hosted by all departments throughout the year, creating a collegiate ethos and strengthening our school community.
