Pole

Welcome to Pole House!

Pole House is one of the more recently formed Houses. Established in 1984 it quickly developed itself within the College, with students fully engaged in all areas of College life.

Since becoming Housemistress of Pole in 2017, I have always been struck by the loyalty students have towards the House and the sense of identity that this brings.  Pole students demonstrate perseverance and inspiration in academic work, fortitude and spirit in sport and compassion and consideration in social relationships. The team of tutors offer support and encouragement for the students to strive to achieve their potential by nurturing their individual qualities.

Pole House has a strong sense of community, which is underpinned by the many events and activities which take place throughout the College year. The progression from new member to senior member of House is a fully integrated journey.

The House members socialise together and are extremely supportive of each other; we believe in the value of good role models and the importance of striving to be the best that you can be. We encourage leadership roles through the tutor groups and through the House Prefect system with varying levels of responsibility.

Pole House Prayer

Dear Lord,

We thank you for Pole House and all those who are part of it.

We ask you to bless our house and give us all the strength to

follow your word throughout our days.

We look to our patron Blessed Margaret Pole

and ask her to help us use our abilities and talents to

succeed in not only house events but everything that we do.

Lord, we ask for your love and mercy to continue to support all

Pole members in their endeavours and we pray that you

will always watch over us and help us grow as members of

the house and in our religious lives.

We ask this through your son, Jesus Christ and our college patron

St Edmund.

Amen
