A very active House System promotes the integration of the different age groups all the way from Foundation Stage to Seniors. On entering the school, all pupils are allocated to a House and, in principle, members of the same family will be allocated to the same House. Membership of a House enhances the pupil’s sense of identity and belonging and creates a spirit of friendly competition and cooperation, as well as providing additional opportunities for participation in various non-academic events. The House system provides a vehicle through which social, sporting and cultural events, including competitions, are organised. Each House is led by a Head of House appointed from among the teaching staff. Captains and Vice-Captains, elected from among the student body, are responsible for assisting the Head of House in the organisation of House activities and competitions.
