House System

Foundation of Spirit & Competition

All the Students from classes III and above are distributed in four houses - Milak, Zungki, Dikhu and Tizu. This system forms the base for all the competition. Through these competitions we teach them that winning is not important, but participation is an integral part of learning. This also inculcates the sense of belonging and house spirit among the students.

Holistic Development

The House provides a good platform for the holistic development of the students. It forms the basis of all the competition in a school and promotes team spirit, group loyalty and a sense of healthy competition.

Pastoral Care

The house system exists to provide pastoral care to the students. In a world with absentee parents, some children require schools to look after their basic physical, social and emotional needs. Learning can only take place when the needs of the students are being met.

Once a house is given to a student the same will remain unchanged till Class XII.
