House was done by Field
Marshal Muhammad Ayub Khan, President of
Pakistan on the 26th of November 1964. It is named
afterJohn M Gwyn who joined as an assistant

Saigol House
Motto: Honest Labour is Worship
Just a few yards away from Prep
School, facing the historic Old
Building and the Main Cricket
Ground, Saigol House was the first
boarding house established
exclusively for the Prep School boys. Financed by
the Saigol Foundation, its foundation stone was
laid on 22nd February 1960 by Jalal Bayar, the
President of Turkey. The inauguration ceremony,
delayed by a few months due to the Indo-Pak war,
was presided over by the then Governor of West
Pakistan Malik Amir Muhammad Khan (himself an
Old Aitchisonian) on 22nd November 1965.
For years, Saigol House remained the boarding
house for E1 (now K6), E2, and M1. However,
with a newly established Monnoo House, M1
moved there in 2024. This move decreased the
number of batches in Saigol House to two while
the number in each batch increased to maintain the
total number of boys in the house to around one
hundred.
Monnoo House
Motto: Beneficial
Knowledge
Monnoo House,
inaugurated on 2nd
September 2024 by the Governor of Punjab, Sardar
Saleem Haider Khan, and donor Mr. Kamal

complete with attached restrooms, wardrobes, and

supportive space to learn, grow, and build lasting
memories.
