About The School Banner Image

Houses

Every pupil is allocated to one of the four traditional School Houses - Airlie, Aystree, Lindores and Wallace.

Each of the four Houses was named after a significant individual or location in the School’s history: Airlie, believed to be named after the Earls of Airlie and the Airlie Estates; Aystree after the home of one of the School’s benefactors; Lindores after the Abbot and Monks of Lindores, who founded the Dundee Grammar School in 1239, to which we can trace our history; Wallace after William Wallace, the famous Scottish patriot, who is reputed to be a former pupil of the School.
