The Holy Family House System and Our House Saints

The House System unites us as one community, strengthening friendships and creating lasting memories. Every student and member of staff belongs to one of six Houses, each named after a saint whose life reflects courage, compassion, and faith.

Through competitions, charity events, and community projects, students develop teamwork, leadership, and a spirit of service.

At Holy Family, our House System isn’t just about belonging - it’s about becoming the best version of ourselves, together.
