Houses

At Royal Oak Intermediate we have a house system. There are four different house: Binsted, Buchanan, Grainger and Jordan. When students first arrive at our school they are randomly put into a house. As the year progresses students earn points for their house. Points can be earned for class work, being a good role model, service to the school and for success in academic, cultural and sporting activities. Each week the winning house is announced at assembly and at the end of term prize giving the winning house for the term is revealed. At the Buchanan Day prize giving in Term 4 the winning house for the year is announced. A student representative is asked to come up on stage to accept the trophy on behalf of all the students in the winning house. There is much friendly competition between the houses at our school.
