Would you beleive that infact, that house did have a little dance, and they would do the HSM dance in assemblies and when there was house comps. They were all very camp, and even a few of the guys dressed in cheerleading uniforms.
I was luckily not in that house.

didn't think HSM was quite old enough to have filtered through to that extent...

No, that house loved it. Some of the teachers would also dress up for it and be dancing the dance while there are competitions on, best one was the house football comp, there was about 30 students and and a few teachers doing the dance. There was a teacher that would even sing to it.

The house names at my school are:
Tigers
Panthers
Wildcats
Lions
Which are all sporting team names of the teams around here.
The school houses used to be named after roads around the school, only one i remember my mum saying was Cavendish
Before the houses, it was just the years split up into groups.
In 6th form, we are just one big group of people

castleford are tigers,
wildcats are wakefield

can't think of the others being any in the wakefield area tho - where abouts are you from?

Nottingham

 

[Bokonon]

Langdale
Canesworde
Hilton
Mead

All imaginatively named after roads around the school as no-one of any note ever attended thus precluding having houses named after ex-pupils.
