House System at EMRS
The residential schools have always played a very impressive and remarkable role in shaping or determining the personality of the child and to keep all the students of the campus intact and provide a systematic guidance, to develop the feeling of oneness, to ensure and infuse confidence among the boarders. The house system prevails in EMRS too. Around 30 students coming from different social background having dissimilar interest and attitude in different age groups are staying in one House under the supervision of one House Master. Apart from the common activities, each House plans its own calendar of activities with competitive spirit.
The job of the House Masters is to supervise the House in every respect such as-
- The maintenance of their House. It is the responsibility of the House Master to check that all the lights are functional.
- Toilets and bathrooms are properly cleaned.
- There are no loose wiring or broken doors and windows.
- Preventing shabby wet clothes hanging inside Houses
- Shabby wet cloths hanging inside the Houses should be avoided.
- De-shelved beds are left before the children go for school & unarranged articles inside the dormitory are also taken care of. This requires silent and polite guidance to do all these things nicely
- Pictures and posters are pasted on the walls. This practice should be discouraged.
- To develop aesthetic sense among the children by keeping their House beautifully maintained which includes internal cleanliness and external gardening etc.
- Preparing the children for inter house competition in games, sports and arts etc.
The House Masters are expected to plan sometimes with the students in the evening hour some enjoyable activities. During their visit they should know about them and their problems. Try to solve their problems if possible or inform the Principal as per procedure through register or in writing. The personal file for each child should be maintained in the House wherein his activities, leave applications, health record etc should be recorded.
