Houses
HOUSE POINTS
All students at The Suthers School are part of a House. Each of our houses is named after a conservation area managed by the Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust. The Houses were chosen by our founding students in 2017 as a tribute to the dedication and passion for conservation shown by the late Martin Suthers OBE and for the opportunity afforded for them to actively contribute to the ongoing conservation work being undertaken by the Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust.
The four Houses are:
Attenborough
Beacon
Skylark
Treswell
