Virtual House System is designed to foster greater student and alumni participation and interaction. It creates a supportive and engaging environment by assigning dedicated Housemasters who actively encourage and motivate members on various fronts.

A total of 8 houses, with students and alumni randomly assigned to different houses according to their curriculum, nationality, and gender. The Virtual House Committees, comprising a House Co-Captain and Vice-Captain, play a key role in strengthening the community and fostering a sense of belonging. Outstanding House Committees will be recognised at the annual Graduation Celebration Banquet in May.
