Dennett House
Welcome to Dennett House!
Dennett House is the Sixth Form Girls house and is a vibrant, friendly and multicultural community, where dedication and passion for academic success is uniquely combined with a fun, creative and stimulating environment. We aim to create a ‘home from home’ for all who live here, which centres on the Catholic family values upon which New Hall was founded. We promote social, academic and personal development and encourage students to approach life in a sensitive and mature manner to best prepare for further studies, employment and the ever-changing world. Here in Dennett, we pride ourselves in providing a nurturing and stable environment, where the health, safety and happiness of each student are always our priorities. In house we enjoy a wide range of activities, excursions, social events, and voluntary services where life-long friendships and experiences are founded. We have a dedicated and caring team who support the girls in all aspects of their development here at New Hall.
