House System

The House system is at the very heart of school life at Reigate Grammar School Riyadh (RGSR). Through the House system our students belong to smaller groups within the whole school community which reinforces the feeling of togetherness which RGSR is well known for.

The House system helps develop vertical and horizontal integration across all year groups. It enhances students sense of belonging by providing a supportive structure that encourages cooperation and communication across classes and year groups. The House system also provides opportunities for students to play a more active role in school life and contribute to a community within their school.

Our students derive great pride and enjoyment through their involvement with their House. House events take place throughout the year which enrich the extra-curricular development of our students, promote ‘House spirit’ and provide fantastic opportunities for students to develop their teamwork and interpersonal skills.
