Houses

Traill International School has three houses whose names were chosen approximately 20 years ago to represent cross-cultural legendary creatures attributed with intelligence, strength, courage, ambition and fortitude. Characteristics which are regularly demonstrated by their students. Students throughout the school compete in events and challenges throughout the school year ranging from sporting to good citizenship. A special emphasis is placed on events that stimulate the student’s minds and are designed to provide opportunities that challenge each student. Students are awarded points for participating, as well as winning, and these contribute to the overall cross campus total of the Houses. The House system fosters in the students a strong sense of teamwork and develops character in the students, which will stay with them for the rest of their lives. Year after year older students encourage and support the younger children in whatever activity they are engaged in, much like an extended family. At the end of school year assembly the Interhouse Cup is presented to the House who has accumulated the most points.
