Every child in DPS is assigned to a House when they join the school. The houses are named after sea creatures - Seals, Dolphins, Whales and Sharks.
Starting in January every year there are competitions held in order for the children to earn points for their House and ultimately claim one or all of the House Cups.
Many of the competitions are sports based, within year groups - benchball, unihock, football and rounders. But there are also opportunities for the less sporty to win points for their house with art, literacy and technology based competitions, as well as regular, surprise uniform checks by Mr Barr!
Children can also be awarded House Points by any member of staff for being particularly helpful, thoughtful, hardworking etc.
