Houses

The four houses in the school (in alphabetical order) are Bracken (green), Brooke (blue), Burns (white) and Byron (red), named after British poets. The houses compete fiercely to win the House Cup, awarded at the end of every school year. Every student and member of staff in the school, other than the principal and deputy principals, subscribe to one of these houses. It is often the case that families will align themselves to certain houses, such as where the oldest sibling of a family was in Burns, their younger siblings, children and grandchildren who attend the school will also be in Burns. On their jerseys they have a ribbon to show which house they are in. The School song is sung at every school Assembly with all up standing.
