Four houses with four family groups per house.
There are four houses, and each house is divided into small groups of about 10 students each. Each family group has a cross-section of students from throughout the school. Each family group meets together for lunch each week. They compete in various challenges and occasionally attend Mass as a family group.
The four houses are named after local landmarks. The family groups' names reflect significant saints from whom we can draw inspiration.
