Fiona Quiddington, HousemistressScott House opened in 2018 and a great deal of attention has gone into making our space functional, homely, contemporary, yet traditional. This very much reflects who we are. In Scott House, we learn beyond the classroom, acknowledging kindness, good manners, initiative, and encourage pupils to embrace new opportunities and skills, whilst learning more about themselves.

The House is named after conservationist Sir Peter Scott (School House 1927). Sir David Attenborough, along with the Scott family, officially opened the House in September 2018.

I like how supportive it is in Scott House. I was nervous when I started, because I thought I would get lost as Oundle is a very big School. But Scott is a place you can always come back to. There’s a cafe area, a quiet room with sofas and desks, an area for prep and a locker room for your things as well as the Berrystead House gardens to play in. It all means that you can meet lots of new friends here. Some highlights of my time at Scott House include a tug-of-war challenge with The Berrystead and our full House team building afternoon which was really fun. I also love the fact that Scott House really tries to help the environment as much as we can, having eco-friendly rules such as no plastic water bottles.
