​Students are allocated to a sport house on enrolment, with members of the same family given the same house.  Houses are:  RED Dingo, GREEN Kangaroo and GOLD Emu.  Houses compete in the Cross Country and Athletics.

At each sporting carnival, age champions (from nine years) are recognised and receive a medallion to commemorate their achievement.

Community groups and individuals have contributed p​erpetual shields: Sam Doumany Ball Games Shield; Geffen Cup for Sport Excellence; Interhouse Athletics Champions, sponsored by the Moorooka Bowls Club; Dutton Park State School Parents and Citizens Swimming Shield; Dutton Park Cross Country House Champions Trophy.

​​​Our previous sport houses, Herbert and Bowen, were introduced in the 1950s. Herbert was named after Sir Robert Herbert, the first Premier of Queensland; gold was chosen as the house colour. Bowen took the name of Sir George Bowen, the first Governor of Queensland; the house colour was light blue.
