Vela


House Colour: Woodpecker Green

Named after the constellation of Vela

Vela is one of the three constellations that used to form the huge constellation Argo Navis, the ship of Jason and the Argonauts. In 1763 Nicolas Louis de Lacaille divided the Argo Navis into three constellations: Carina (the Keel), Puppis (the Stern), and Vela (the Sail).

In Vela house we discuss our problems to find solutions.

We value honesty.

We always AIM HIGH!

In Vela House we work together to promote success. A team of dedicated tutors manage the important time spent in House groups every morning. They really enjoy getting to know their tutees throughout their time in Tollbar.

Vela students are always keen to try in Interhouse competitions. This year, a talented group of Year 7 students ensured success in the Interhouse dance competition, winning first place. The winners are pictured below receiving the trophy from Mr Birtwhistle. Well Done!

Our teams take part in many competitions throughout the year, ensuring there is something to suit everyone.

We are very proud to have the UK Maths Challenge ‘Best In School’ award winner in Vela House – Liam Vernau 9VE10.
