Davys House

HEAD OF HOUSE MESSAGE:

Over the years Davys House has enjoyed the leadership of successful and innovative Heads of House. Being appointed as Head of Davys House I consider to be a real honour, however, it is also a big challenge. Following the likes of Mr Margetts I am acutely aware of the big job ahead of me.

Within Davys House there is a strong sense of togetherness, supporting one another in the various House activities. Whether it is in the House Show,  on the sporting field, in the quiz competition or in everyday school life members of Davys House give their maximum effort and encourage others in the House to do likewise.

Such positive attitude is clear in the many charitable activities that Davys has been involved in, in recent years. From 2006-2008 Davys House raised £5,000 to pay for the training of 'Davy' the Guide Dog, likewise many hundreds of pounds has been raised for good causes such as Cystic Fibrosis and Multiple Sclerosis. Whilst maintaining our support of MS, the students within Davys House have voted to support 'Help for Heroes' as our second charity for this year.

This year has seen Davys House putting on a House Show for the first time in many years. Largely thanks to the work of Mr Hunt and Mrs Torocisk, many talented students and Davys House staff 'Seussical' was born. Not only did the performances raise £600 for our charities but also revealed the hidden talents of Davys House members.

It is those talents, together with a sense of real determination that makes Davys House a fantastic thing to be a part of. I'm sure our competitive spirit will win through and be recognised with continued successes in the House competition.
