Life as an Omerian
Head of House, Lutendo
Harris Guild
I am the Head of House for the 2025/26 year and am absolutely honoured to hold this position. Since joining Meister Omers I have felt at home and have so much pride in the house, both on the sports pitch and around the school.
​
Below I go through what my days look like in Meister Omers.
Structure of the day - Sixth Form
I begin the day having breakfast at the main school dining hall.​ The Shells, Removes, and Fifths all hand in their phones for the day as well as overnight, but in sixth form we get to keep them.
I then head for our morning roll call at 8:15. During this either Mr Singfield or Mr Landymore go through what we have that day and share any news for the house.
Depending on the day we then have either mentor time, assembly, or congers. Congers is our weekly congregational practice where we learn to sing the hymns that are in that week's Evensong or Matins service on Sunday.
To begin the day at school we have up to six lessons before lunch with a break in the middle. As a sixth former, I sometimes have study periods where I head back to house or to the library to study.
We then have lunch which is incredible and varies each day. On Thursdays we have a roast and on Fridays we have fish and chips. My favourite has to be Chicken Katsu Curry though!​
In the afternoon we then have either lessons, games, or activities. For my games options I do rugby, football and cricket.
After school there are then extracurricular activities, academic clinics, or supervised study.
The end of the day begins with another incredible meal either in the main dining hall, the undercroft, or the refectory.
​
We then have an evening prep session in house to focus on studies followed by free time to chill out in house before lights out. As a sixth former I am responsible for helping the tutor on duty with the evening routine for the younger boys. This makes sure that all of the boys in house are getting to bed at a good time so that they get the rest they need.
