Hostel and Houses
The boys were accommodated in six hostel blocks. Each hostel is supervised by a teacher-warden who lives in the warden’s flat in the same building. To look after the discipline and the well being of the boys in the hostels, the warden is helped by prefects appointed from the more senior boys.
Each hostel is identified as a “House” named after a colour: Green, Blue, Black, Red, White and Yellow. The house system promotes cooperation and esprit de corp among the boys in the same house and provides competition in games, athletics, and debates.
