Student life
Houses, sports and everything after the bell
Teachers and students are divided into four houses to imbibe a healthy competitive spirit, and a full programme of activity runs alongside the academic timetable.
The house system
Four houses, one campus
The teachers and the students are divided into four houses to imbibe a healthy competitive spirit. Houses compete through the year in sports, cultural events and academic competitions, and the system gives every student a smaller group to belong to within a large school.
Houses also give students their first taste of leadership. House captains and team leaders organise entries, encourage participation and represent their house at assemblies and events.

Martial arts
Silambam on the school ground
Silambam, the traditional Tamil martial art of stick fighting, is taught on the open ground alongside karate and yoga. Students train through the year and perform at school celebrations.
Physical training builds more than fitness: it teaches focus, timing, respect for an opponent and the confidence that comes from practising something difficult until it is done well.
