An Our House Spirit House system is a unique structure introduced into a schools framework to connect and
unite its entire community. Within the structure are several highly connected teams of cross aged
students, teachers and families. These teams are referred to as Houses and ultimately offer an
entity where students experience a true sense of belonging. They are fun fuelled, spirited, diverse,
inclusive, vibrant and engaging.

For many years Australian Primary schools have been utilising a traditional House system model
as a way to group students for sporting competitions. This old fashioned approach engages sports
minded students, however alienates all other students. An Our House Spirit House system is
modern and recognises the current day child and their interests.

“There’s so many things that kids are interested in now and we’ve got to acknowledge that at schools”

Kaye Mills, Principal - Sunbury Heights PS

​

“The activities kids can be involved in needs to be varied and not sports focussed, if it’s sport-focussed you are going to cut

out a third of your schools population” Rob Csoti, Principal Mentor

​
