Houses
At the time of admission, each student is appointed to join one of the six houses randomly. Every year, the six houses compete with one another in the annual big competitions such as Sports Day, Swimming Gala and Music Contest, to see which house would be the annual overall champion. The Houses' names are as follows:
| House | Colour |
| House of Kindness (K)仁社 | Red |
| House of Trust (T)信社 | Blue |
| House of Modesty (M)謙社 | Green |
| House of Courtesy (C)禮社 | Yellow |

Famous quotes containing the word houses:
“Let those talk of poverty and hard times who will in the towns and cities; cannot the emigrant who can pay his fare to New York or Boston pay five dollars more to get here ... and be as rich as he pleases, where land virtually costs nothing, and houses only the labor of building, and he may begin life as Adam did? If he will still remember the distinction of poor and rich, let him bespeak him a narrower house forthwith.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The spectacle of misery grew in its crushing volume. There seemed to be no end to the houses full of hunted starved children. Children with dysentery, children with scurvy, children at every stage of starvation.... We learned to know that the barometer of starvation was the number of children deserted in any community.”
—Mary Heaton Vorse (1874–1966)
“They shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 12:7.
