House leagues

House league activities are a major focus of our extra curricular sports programme. Students in the lower school are assigned to one of four houses when they first enter MacLachlan. The house names are Chisholm, Colborne, Sumner and Thomas. The four houses are named after prominent Oakville individuals who played a major role in the early development of the town.  Gaining points for their individual houses through participation and the inculcation of a sense of 'fair play' in these activities, leads to healthy competition and keen enjoyment.

Varsity Teams
