Houses

When a student joins the school, he or she is allocated into one of the four houses, APOLLO, ATHENA, PEGASUS and TRITON. The names of the houses are from Greek legends-traditions that go down centuries in history. A child continues to remain in that house up to the time of leaving school. If a sibling joins the school subsequently, he or she is put into the same house.Swimming Meets and Athletic Meets are run as House contests, along with points being accumulated for academic achievements. The Overall Challenge Shield for the best House is awarded at the Prize Day. Inter house fixtures are worked out for many sporting events like Cricket, Basketball and Badminton. The House Committees comprising House Captains, Athletic Captains and the Swimming Captains are appointed for each House. All four House Committees, though they run a competition with each other, also work in unison on common projects. The colours of the houses are as follows.

  •   Triton
  •   Pegasus
  •   Athena
  •   Apollo
