House System

Each student at Springside West Secondary College belongs to a house. This forms an integral part of their time at school.

All of the individuals chosen for our house names challenged themselves in new and unique ways to make a difference.

There are four houses:

Freeman

Nolan

Named after the painter Sidney Nolan and dedicated to achievement in the Arts and the pursuit of a unique creative vision.

Hollows

Named after Fred Hollows for his work as a humanitarian in a scientific field.

Goldstein

Named after Vida Goldstein the suffragette and social campaigner for the right of women to vote.
