House System
Mount Carmel College has three houses: Lourdes, Loreto, and Carmel. All three houses are named after Holy places that are important to Catholics. The houses compete for the house cup by participating in sports carnivals, House drama, Beach day, and can gain extra points for things such as singing practice for Masses and Mount Carmel day, Bringing notices and Forms back on time, and Getting student diaries signed for being used properly.

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or system:
“Amidst the downward tendency and proneness of things, when every voice is raised for a new road or another statute or a subscription of stock; for an improvement in dress, or in dentistry; for a new house or a larger business; for a political party, or the division of an estate;Mwill you not tolerate one or two solitary voices in the land, speaking for thoughts and principles not marketable or perishable?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“A heresy can spring only from a system that is in full vigor.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
