Houses

The role of the House System is to foster school spirit and healthy relationships between pupils. Each pupil and member of staff belong to a house. Each house is divided into eight tutor groups, which are headed by two staff members: a tutor and a co-tutor.

Houses not only provide pastoral care to pupils but also foster healthy school spirit and friendly competition. Houses compete at various inter-house events throughout the year, including a drama competition, swimming gala, trail run and cross country. 

There will be a “Gees Week'' and build-up at the end of most terms. The Matric Leaders organise activities and enrichment events that include all facets of school life: sport, cultural and creative, music, community outreach, current affairs and social.
