The house system is a traditional feature of many schools and colleges. The college is divided into subunits called ‘houses’. Pupils are usually assigned to houses randomly, perhaps with the aim of balancing the houses to increase competition. Houses may compete with one another at sports and maybe in other ways, thus providing a focus for group loyalty. One notable feature of the house system is the appointment of house captains or Leaders, and the house captain’s assistants who exercise limited authority within the house and assist in the organization of the house.
Names of the groups are as follows:
- Aromatic Air
- Sparkling water
- Radiant sky
- Exotic earth
- Flaming fire
