Jackson's

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jackson's House (Jackson's) is one of the oldest ten houses at Upper Canada College in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Sir Kenneth Thomson, Canada's wealthiest man, is an Old Boy. Members of Jackson's house are known as "Jacksonites", and at times, the "J-Team".

Jackson's has recently landed in the top three standings for the Prefects' Cup. Jackson's House colour is yellow, and the current house theme/cheer is an adaptation of Thunderstruck by AC/DC. There has been a recent revival of its respondatory "Ahoy" cheer, which is relayed after being prompted by a Jackson's House member on stage.
