HOUSE SYSTEM

To nurture leadership, teamwork, and a spirit of healthy competition, DPS Gomti Nagar Extension follows a well-structured House System. The system provides every student with opportunities to participate actively in academic, co-curricular, and sports activities, thereby ensuring holistic development.

Students are allotted to different houses at the time of admission and remain part of the same house throughout their school journey. Each house comprises students from various classes, promoting unity, cooperation, and peer learning across age groups.

Tulips House – Red stands for love, courage, energy, and determination.

It symbolises passion for excellence, confidence in action, and the courage to lead with compassion. The red tulip represents a vibrant spirit, inspiring students to face challenges boldly, work with enthusiasm, and uphold strong values in all endeavours.

Shamrocks House – Green stands for growth, hope, harmony, and resilience.

Inspired by the shamrock, it symbolises renewal and balance, encouraging students to grow with integrity, nurture positive values, and remain steadfast in the face of challenges. The green colour reflects prosperity, freshness of thought, and a strong connection with nature, guiding students towards sustainable and responsible living.

Daffodils House – Yellow stands for optimism, joy, creativity, and enlightenment.
