To encourage a healthy competitive spirit among the students we have a house system from Class I to XII. The houses are named as follows:
The house system inculcates the qualities of leadership, cooperation, mutual understanding, tolerance and self reliance. Various activities and competitions are organised to build team spirit and the winners are allotted points which are contributed to the house.
