Four houses carry our culture: Apollo<\/strong> for clear thinking and craft, Triton<\/strong> for disciplined strength and care for the common good, Helios<\/strong> for invention that can be tested, and Proteus<\/strong> for research that changes shape as problems do. Every student and adult joins a house on the first day. Weekly assemblies, newcomer mentoring, and the InterHouse Shield<\/strong> keep the rhythm steady; academics, sport, arts, service, and citizenship all count, and the scoreboard lives beside Forum\u202f208<\/strong> for everyone to see. The match between idea and place is deliberate: Apollo lives in the Atria Library<\/strong>, studios and stages; Triton in Aqua\u202f26<\/strong>, Momentum Courts<\/strong>, Precision Gallery<\/strong> and Grit Zone<\/strong>; Helios in Venture Studio<\/strong>, AI & Robotics<\/strong>, CodeForge<\/strong> and Pixel Forge<\/strong>; Proteus in the Engine Room<\/strong> and science suites, with vivas in Forum\u202f208<\/strong>. Student crews\u2014Sports, Arts, Service\/ESD, Media\/Tech\u2014ensure backstage work earns points alongside performances. It\u2019s tradition without fuss: a calm system for courage, courtesy, and results.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Roles & routines<\/h3>\n

Prefects run movement routines and event ops; Captains chair committees; the School Captain\u2019s team sets term goals and reports progress. Forum\u202f208 hosts orientations and captain briefings; major announcements land in The Great Hall.
