House System

The final major piece of our Co-Curricular puzzle here at CISS is our House System! For those of you new to the CISS Community, the House System is a traditional feature of schools worldwide whereby the participating school is split into subunits known as Houses.

The House System increases school spirit through healthy team competition. Four House Days have been designated in the school calendar as a way of fostering a sense of belonging, building tradition and underscoring the values of character education. Our 4 Houses are: Cerberus (Black), Phoenix (Red), Kraken (Blue), and Hydra (White).

Last year we wrapped up our second year of the House System by awarding the Kraken House the House Cup for the second consecutive year. They staged an incredible late year charge to retain the Cup with a staggering 345,021 points and will once again hold the distinct honour of being known as the “defending champs” for the entire 2019-2020 school year.
