Houses
Upon admission, pupils are placed into one of the four houses in Methodist Girls' School. The selection is random, unless the student currently has any sibling attending the school.
The four houses are Blackmore, Jackson, Lee and Olson. Each house has a Senior Captain (Secondary 4), Junior Captain (Secondary 3), Treasurer, two Level Representatives for each of the respective levels, a Swimming Representative and a Sports Day Representative.
Houses gain points from participation in the annual Inter-House games and swimming meet.

“Nothing will be left white but here a birch,
And there a clump of houses with a church.”
