GIFS has four houses, much like Hogwarts in Harry Potter. I haven no idea how they divide the kids, but they keep siblings together. Our kids landed in Dokkaebi.

According to Wikipedia,
'Dokkaebi are legendary creatures from Korean mythology and folklore. Dokkaebi, also known as "Korean goblins," possess extraordinary powers and abilities that are used to interact with humans, at times playing tricks on them and at times helping them.'
Anyway, Dokkaebi is our House. I am absolutely loving that we are all together under the same roof again. We just had one golden year in the States, but now we are gifted with a few more!
Monday kicked off Spirit Week with the first of four House Games throughout the year.
The purpose is to build community and a sense of family within the school.
They played a bunch of silly games that required communication, teamwork, and a sense of humor.
Each house had their own chant. Here the kids are learning it.
The first day was house color. Tuesday was tiger spirit.
I somehow missed a picture of Wacky Wednesday. Thursday was twin day. Aw, the boys picked each other (sort of a cop-out because they wore their gym clothes, but still).
Friday was jammy day.
