House Champions 2023

A big congratulations to all the P5-P7 pupils for their participation and efforts throughout the year during the House Competition!

The pupils have competed in lots of activities from creating a school mascot, competing in a sports quiz, designing their own house crest, creating their own game to showcase to their class to a range of sporting challenges including competing in Sports Week. Every individual earned points in each of the competitions that were accumulated throughout the course of the year! It was a closely contested affair with some Houses coming out on top in the creative tasks while others had greater success in some of the team sporting events.

It has been great to see every House encourage one another, celebrate each others success and work hard together as a team towards achieving success.

After tallying all the points from across all the various competitions, this years HOUSE CHAMPIONS 2023 with a whopping 1,432 pts ARE….
