Merton

Merton History

Merton was the sixth House formed at Glyn School. The school had once again expanded beyond its size and so required a new house in 1992 - and thus Merton was formed.

Merton takes it famous name from the London Borough where many students and staff travel from everyday. Merton as a place name can be traced back to the 7th century, with Merton Priory being established on the grounds of Nonsuch Park around 1117. Truly a rich history for a Glyn School House!

Merton is one of the more recently successful Houses having won the Victor Ludorum Cup seven times since 2006, with two of those being 2018/19 and 2019/20 and the most recent 2021-2022.
