Concordia College (South Australia) - House System

House System

As with most Australian schools, Concordia College utilises a house system. There are currently four houses, three named after three of the streets surrounding the College and the fourth, Malvern after the neighbouring suburb.

  • Cheltennam - Green (The Green Army/Warthog Army)
  • Highgate - Dark Blue (The Highgate Heroes/Highgate Hippies)
  • Malvern - Light Blue (The Malvern Spartans/Malverknights)
  • Winchester - Red (The Winchester Warriors/Windians)

Students represent their house in a number of activities, including a Sports day held at Santos Stadium, a Swimming carnival held at Unley Memorial Swimming Pool, and lunchtime house sports. Students earn points for their house through participation in these activities, and the house with the most points at the conclusion of the school year is awarded the House Shield.

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or system:

    You take my house when you do take the prop
    That doth sustain my house; you take my life
    When you do take the means whereby I live.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Our system of government, in spite of Vietnam, Cambodia, CIA, Watergate, is still the best system of government on earth. And the greatest resource of all are the 215 million Americans who still have within us the strength, the character, the intelligence, the experience, the patriotism, the idealism, the compassion, the sense of brotherhood on which we can rely in the future to restore the greatness to our country.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
