House system
Eckington School is organised into five houses:
- Artemis
- Athena
- Zeus
- Poseidon
- Apollo
These names were chosen as the result of a student vote. Each house has a member of staff at its head, and a student house captain for each year group, whose job it is to promote and lead inter-house activities throughout the year.
House events have included robot wars, a paper aeroplane challenge, bouldering competition, an inter-house quiz, football and netball competitions, a photography challenge and a 'come dine with me' competition...to name but a few!
