Any more to add from your schooldays I'm ashamed to say I don't know who/what my schools houses were named after or even remember the colours of the houses Birkenhead Institute
DOCTUS IN SE SEMPER DIVITIAS HABET which means "The wise man always has riches within".
Atkin, Stitt, Tate Westminster, with two more houses of Cohen and Davies being added when the school changed to a High School in the 1970s, moving from its original site in Whetstone Lane to Tollemache Road.
Senior School houses were: School House, Bushell's, Davis's, Griffin's, Pearse's and Sloman's. All, I think, named after erstwhile incumbents of the headmaster's chair.
Davis's colour was green and I think Sloman's was yellow, but it's no use asking me about the rest as I'm colour blind!
