Houses
There are four houses: Ruby (red), Sapphire (blue), Emerald (green), and Topaz (yellow). Every Thursday the school conducts house assemblies separately at four places on the campus: at a small red stage, staff room, junior assembly ground, and the badminton court. The place allotted to a house is for two months, after which they rotate. Each week the students of a particular house look after the campus, to maintain discipline.
The students of the minding house are known as mentors. The houses have moderators, a captain and a vice-captain from senior and junior year.[5] In alternate years a sports day and a Parents' Nite are organized.
