House System
On September 2012, Holmes Chapel Comprehensive School introduced a house system, putting tutor groups from each year into different houses. The houses are named after the local places of interest in the area, Arley, Capesthorne, Moreton, and Tatton. Each house has a linked colour, students have to wear a coloured tie matching to their house colour. These were provided by the school, and are available to buy at local shops.

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or system:
“Go to the adolescent who are smothered in family—
Oh how hideous it is
To see three generations of one house gathered together!
It is like an old tree with shoots,
And with some branches rotted and falling.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
“We are now going through a period of demolition. In morals, in social life, in politics, in medicine, and in religion there is a universal upturning of foundations. But the day of reconstruction seems to be looming, and now the grand question is: Are there any sure and universal principles that will evolve a harmonious system in which we shall all agree?”
—Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
