Welcome from Mrs Rebecca Pugh
I am delighted to welcome you to Northbrook, our new House for girls at Charterhouse, which opens in September 2021. Northbrook will pave the way for girls, as the school becomes fully coeducational. As a new house, we will have the chance to build and create our ethos and environment together. This will be founded on the core values of the School; kindness, moral courage, perseverance, responsibility and open mindedness.
Northbrook will be a ‘home from home’, where all girls will be encouraged, motivated and challenged both in their academic studies and in their co-curricular pursuits. There will be an expectation of collaboration and commitment, whether this be in Drama, Music, Art, Sport or smaller internal House events.
Northbrook will be a supportive and caring house, where everyone is responsible for creating a happy and warm environment for all to thrive and reach their full potential.
