The House System
The school is
divided into five vertical Houses, each led by a Principal Teacher
(Guidance). In each House there is a team of staff who act as
First Level Guidance Tutors or Register Teachers.
The House names
are all associated with the history of Aberdeen and are:
|
House |
Guidance Teacher |
|
Bruce House |
Mrs Munro |
|
Craigievar House |
Mr MacBean |
|
Dunecht House |
Mrs Finnie |
|
Greyfriars House |
Mrs Taylor |
|
Marischal House |
Mrs Milne |
The House System is designed
to encourage greater participation by both pupils and staff in the
extra-curricular life of the school. It provides the opportunity for
pupils to represent their House in various activities, most of which are
competitive and contribute to an overall House Championship.

The House Captains 2010 - 2011
Senior pupils from each house are appointed as
House Captains. Their role is to help organise and encourage support for the
various Interhouse competitions. The House Captains for this year are:
Interhouse Competition 2010-2011
(Provisional)
Every Year, from August through to March, a
series of competitions are held between the houses. These range from
sporting events such as cross-country running or football through to
non-sporting events like the Tutor Team Quiz or CD Rom challenge. Points are
earned for each House. The winner is often decided at the final event - the
swimming gala. Look here for the results
from previous years and this year's competition.
The programme for 2010-11 is given below.
With the changes to timetable, all competitions will
mostly be held on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday and must start promptly.
