Each pupil is assigned to one of the six Houses on entry and each House has its own distinctive character and colour and is led by members of the teaching staff, who are also allocated a House to support. Parents and families are encouraged to wear their child’s House colour and support their child at our main House events.
Through the ‘House’ system our pupils belong to smaller groups within the whole school community and participate in numerous competitions which include competitive sport and music activities. Pupils proudly wear their House T-Shirts for regular House events and assemblies and can earn House Credits for good work and behaviour. Inter–house competitions provide opportunities for friendly rivalry and help to bolster team spirit and House identity.
Through a collaborative and inclusive approach to the house system at RGS, we deliver a comprehensive inter-house program that is rooted in mutual respect.
For Primary School, every Tuesday, we celebrate House Day with a range of activities aimed at promoting a sense of ownership and pride, as well as fostering integrity within each house. During House Day, students congregate in Key Stage Phases to discuss prevalent physical, social, economic, or health issues, both within school life and the broader community, aligning these discussions with our six core values.
Students have the opportunity to earn house points on House Day, during inter-house ECAs, or throughout the week by demonstrating one of the six core values.
