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:
“For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.”
—Bible: New Testament, 2 Corinthians 5:1.
“The North American system only wants to consider the positive aspects of reality. Men and women are subjected from childhood to an inexorable process of adaptation; certain principles, contained in brief formulas are endlessly repeated by the press, the radio, the churches, and the schools, and by those kindly, sinister beings, the North American mothers and wives. A person imprisoned by these schemes is like a plant in a flowerpot too small for it: he cannot grow or mature.”
—Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
