Houses
All students are allocated to a House group when they start at Tallangatta Secondary College and remain in the same House throughout their six years at the school. The House system provides another level of connection to the school and fellow students.

Through these Houses, students can participate in a range of different activities and House events. During Terms 1 and 2, students participate in the three big House events – House swimming, House athletics and House cross-country. Every event that a student participates in earns points for their House. These points are tallied at the end of every carnival to determine the House winner at every year level.
Other House activities held throughout the year include:
- Reading competition
- Writing competition
Students are encouraged to participate in as many House events as possible to foster team spirit and to help their House succeed.
Our REAL homegroup structure is also based on the four houses.
