Six new College Houses to launch in 2021

The Tell Them From Me Survey data, along with discussions with our Student Leaders over the past two years, has led to the planning and creation of new Houses at the College.

Creating opportunities to connect as a community

Students have expressed a desire to connect with their peers in more meaningful ways. This includes generating more opportunities for students to lead their peers. Research tells us that a House system galvanises school spirit by connecting to the history of the school, as well as through the creation of activities promoting the House Cup. Therefore, students and staff have been working on developing a new House system for 2021.

As a result, on Thursday 10 December, the College held a House Cup Reveal event to introduce our six Houses for 2021.

Each of the chosen Houses are connected to our Ursuline heritage, being named after significant Ursuline sisters.

Our newly elected House Leaders utilised a colour reveal to provide information on each of the House Patrons, as well as their related symbol and motto.

How the new system will work

Students at the College have been randomly sorted into their new House, which they are able to view on Compass. Siblings will be in the same House.

Our new Houses will begin at the start of 2021. A graphic designer is currently working on our banners and we are looking forward to also launching these at the start of 2021.

The Houses and House Leaders are:
