Tribs

Wetherby pastoral groups are known as Tributaries, or Tribs for short, and have each been named for one of London’s hidden rivers. Our Tribs of Serpentine and Whitestone for Years 7 and 8 and Tyburn, Fleet, Effra, Walbrook and Ravensbourne for the remaining year groups, are a nod to the ancient history of our city and encourage a healthy rivalry with inter-house competitions in sport, debating and other activities.

The tribs serve to build vertical links throughout the school and create smaller communities within the larger whole and provide more opportunities for pupil leadership. The Sixth Form boys support the younger members and co-ordinate the Trib teams in the various sporting, artistic and intellectual competitions that take place throughout the year.
