Warren House

Hello and welcome to Warren House at William Edwards
warren11[1]

My name is Louise Merrigan and I am proud to be the House Leader for Warren house. Warren are fortunate to have a fantastic team of tutors and co tutors who endeavour to provide the best care, guidance and leadership for the 300 plus students who were selected to become part of the Warren family.

One key aim within Warren is to promote friendship, teamwork, excellence and competition within the setting of an outstanding school. We do this by providing Warren students with a variety of challenges and enjoyable activities on a daily basis such as inter tutor competitions and inter house sporting and academic games. When students and tutors are not desperately trying to shake last position on sports day, we could be filming the latest lip syncing video or launching wellies across the playground to score points to win the coveted Warren house cup. Aside from hard work and dedication to your studies, we believe success in Warren go hand in hand with a positive attitude, an excellent sense of humour and a desire to do better.

During tutor time activities such as year group discussions, the teaching of SMSC values and current affairs discussions takes place on a fortnightly time table. This year tutor time will also include a short ‘snap literacy’ session on Monday mornings for students to brush up on their literacy skills. In all aspects of the House system, participation, effort and achievement are rewarded. Students can expect prizes and postcards home for the highest number of positive SIMS, average effort scores and prizes to recognise excellence or good sportsmanship.

All tutors within Warren House work together to improve the house system so all students are getting the best experience possible. Furthermore, all students within Warren are offered the opportunity to voice their opinions through the School Council and by becoming a Tutor Representative for their tutor group. Each year we also elect a group of House Captains and Sports Captains who work hard to improve the house identity and students day-to-day experience within school, from break times, canteen food to school uniform and homework

Our final aim within Warren is to support students with both their curricular and pastoral provision at school to provide opportunities for students to develop the skills, experiences and attributes required to become well rounded and confident individuals; who will not only succeed outside school but also be emotionally ready for the wider world.
If you have any questions or feel you need to speak with me directly regarding your child’s happiness, progress and success at school, please do not hesitate to contact me at: merriganl@wes.swecet.org.

Warren House Rewards Round Up Summer 2018

19th July 2018/in General News, Warren News /by Static Author Display Name

Hello Warren House!

Congratulations on making it to the end of academic year 2018, doesn’t it feel like this year has been a particularly long one, but how lovely it has been to have such beautiful weather to see us into the summer holidays.

Unfortunately, our resident journalist, Mia Brien, is about to embark on the annual year 10 trip to the South of France so she has left the job of ‘term review’ to her favourite house leader.

Warren House has to say farewell to three very well-loved form tutors: Miss Dove, Miss Laura Duffy and Mr Farrell are moving on to brand new schools for September. Although Warren House will not be the same without you, we wish you the best of luck and hope that you won’t miss us too much. We are sure that Miss Duffy will have a wonderful wedding day and hope that the Irish weather will be kind to you!

Warren House Newsletter 29th March 2018

29th March 2018/in General News, Warren News /by Static Author Display Name

Hello, my name is Mia Brien and I am year 10 Senior House Captain for Warren. It has been another action packed term for students in warren and I have provided you with a summary below.

Every tutor in Warren has taken part in a tutor challenge every other week, which include activities such as: Christmas jumper challenge where the tutor with the most pupils wearing a jumper got the highest points, The ‘keepy uppy’ football challenge, a timed balloon over and under challenge for 10 tutees in each tutor, longest trail of coins to raise money for foodbanks, best hair style, Lego sculpture, timed cup stacking and crème egg the and spoon race.

Last Tuesday during the very competitive egg and spoon race Miss McGrane’s tutor took the lead with Charlotte Wood coming first, unfortunately this saw Mr Hamilton drop from 1st to 2nd place which meant the warren trophy has changed hands once again and is back with SLM’s tutor. The tutees were rewarded with breakfast on the 27th of March and will have fast passes for the queues at break times.

Warren Tutor Challenge – Bake Off 2017

18th October 2017/in General News, Warren News /by Static Author Display Name

It was another fantastic year for the students who took part in the Warren ‘Bake Off’ Tutor Challenge.

House Captains were given the difficult task of scoring each entry for both taste and presentation. With some very full tummies the three overall winners were chosen and points were allocated to tutor groups.

A massive ‘Well done!’ to Emma Sweeney (SLM) for her unicorn cake extravaganza; complete with different coloured pink and purple sponge layers and edible horn! And to joint 2nd place winners, Adam Smith (ASH) and Laila Richards & Layla Whiffen (NSF).

Congratulations to everyone who took part.
