Each student is allocated to one of three houses, Ettrick, Yarrow or Tweed. To foster a sense of belonging to each House, regular inter-house competitions are organised in a range of sporting and other activities.
All students are encouraged to take part and trophies are presented to House captains at the Prize Giving Ceremony in June.
Students are encouraged to organise teams themselves and each year will elect House reps who are responsible for doing this.
