Houses

For as long as I knew, the students in Penang Free School were divided into houses:

Cheeseman - Red
Hargreaves - Brown
Pinhorn - Blue
Wu Lien Teh - Green
Hamilton - Yellow
Tunku Putra - Orange
Tunku Syed Sirajuddin(Purple)
P. Ramli(Gray)

A student is allocated a house at the start of their first year and will be a member throughout until they leave.


Prior to this, somewhere before the 1980s, students were all divided into scout houses, or so I heard

Still remember your history?
