Theme: โCEmenting the Gaps: Strengthening Bonds Between Students and Progress.โ
As we celebrate the civil engineering week, we proudly introduce the two houses that will represent the spirit of engineering excellence in this yearโs activities. Inspired by historical figures whose works shaped the field of civil engineering, Eiffel and Vespasia stand as symbols of innovation, resilience, and legacy.

Named after the renowned French engineer Gustave Eiffel, this house represents visionary engineering and bold design. Eiffel is best known for creating the iconic Eiffel Tower in Paris, a structure that was once the tallest man-made structure in the world and remains a global symbol of engineering brilliance. Beyond the tower, Eiffel also contributed to numerous bridges, viaducts, and even the internal framework of the Statue of Liberty. His work demonstrated how engineering can combine strength, creativity, and eleganceโqualities that continue to inspire civil engineers today.

This house draws inspiration from Vespasian, the Roman emperor who initiated the construction of one of historyโs most remarkable engineering achievements, the Colosseum. Built during the height of Roman engineering, the Colosseum showcased advanced construction techniques such as complex arch systems, concrete structures, and efficient crowd management design. The legacy of Roman engineeringโfrom roads and aqueducts to monumental structuresโlaid many of the foundations for modern civil engineering practices. House Vespasia symbolizes durability, structural mastery, and the enduring impact of infrastructure on civilization.
Through these houses, we celebrate not only friendly competition but also the legacy of civil engineering that continues to shape the world. As we embrace this yearโs theme, may these two houses remind us that the structures we build today will become the foundations of tomorrow.
