Houses

All children enrolled in Kindergarten through to Year 6 belong to one of the school’s three houses.

The Houses are named after prominent evangelical Christian missionaries, in keeping with the school’s foundations as a Christian mission to our local community. Students participate in a range of sporting and cultural activities aligned to their house groups, having opportunity to earn points throughout the year.
