The Lammas School family is divided into three houses, Lawrence House, Sherwood House and Newstead House, each of which celebrates our local area and is represented by a symbol on our shield. When pupils join the school, they will become a valued member of one of our houses, giving them the opportunity to form positive relationships with other pupils across the school. The House system is also used to promote good work, behaviour and achievement and gives pupils the confidence to contribute to the school in any area where they have talent. There are several events throughout the school year where children participate in their Houses. This creates friendly competition between each House and requires the pupils to work together and encourage one another.

Lawrence

Lawrence House, the book, is named after D.H. Lawrence and represents knowledge.

Newstead

Newstead House, the tower, is named after Newstead Abbey and represents spirit.

Sherwood

Sherwood House, the tree, is named after Sherwood Forest and represents nature and the world around us. ​
